Don't you love it when you discover a mistake on a major website? Doesn't it make you feel all superior inside, like a glowing ember of dung?
I certainly love it. Take this example from a fine story on ESPN about Milton Bradley replacing Mark Kotsay in center field for Oakland. Be sure to look at the pictures here...
Did you catch that? Below Kotsay's picture, where it should say "Kotsay," it instead reads "Name"... Hilarious!!! I'm still laughing, and I noticed it ten minutes ago! So a Behemoth like ESPN.com uses a template for its web-design... Shocking. I can't believe it, it's unthinkable. And yet having noticed it I can't stop laughing!!!
This brings up one of my all-time favorite ideas that I have ever had. I intend to name my first child, regardless of gender, Name. Can you imagine the confusion that would cause? "What's your name?" "Name." "Yes, I asked you your name." "My name IS Name!" It would be hilarious, even more hilarious than the above error that I still find so g.d. funny!
See you all at our Time Capsule Party Tomorrow night. And if you can't make it, you are officially square, no matter how legit your 'scuse.

I was always thinking of naming my firstborn child "food". Then utter confusion would bring up my child as a surrogate parent for the utter confusion that I could offer as a dysfunctional adult. And "food" should get him or her many non-predatory friends to chill with on a saturday night smoking endo.

peace to my homies
I wonder if when your kid gets famous and is on ESPN.com, with they mistakenly put "Kotsay" underneath his picture?
P.S. I want a call tonight when I win Comeback Blogger of the Year!
Nost., you should also share your tattoo idea with the thirsty masses.
