I wonder how folks who actually know me in the flesh feel about reading some of the more sensitive elements of my life lately. Some things that I’d probably have made filtered in the past, I haven’t really bothered to lock up. I may later, depending on my mood reflecting back… but I suspect it won’t change anytime soon. I wonder where my mind will be when I look back in a year or three and see what’s been going on.

I did have a nice email banter with both GP and Katt last night about gastronomic hoodlums, giant ants and drowned uppity townsfolk.

ADP gets another F for night 2 on call. I gave her a 20 minute buffer to do the right thing, and launch community alerts, and she failed, despite telling me multiple times that she’d get things done right.

Court rules against ‘irresponsible name’
From AFP

GIVING your child one unusual name is fine, but inflicting it with 12 is going overboard, Germany’s constitutional court ruled in a judgment released Friday.

It rejected an appeal by a mother who wanted to call her son Chenekwahow Tecumseh Migiskau Kioma Ernesto Inti Prithibi Pathar Chajara Majim Henriko Alessandro.

“The state has the duty to protect a child’s fundamental rights against an irresponsible choice of names by parents,” it ruled.

The appeal was brought by a woman in the populous western state of North Rhine-Westphalia after a lower court’s decision in 1998 to cut the number of names to five.

The lower court had ruled that having a long chain of names would have “a significantly onerous effect” on the child.

Just like Sweden… the state can control even what you name your kid. The freedoms we take for granted here in the states, sometimes.
