the goat in question was made of metal (of course).

in other news....


(CNN) -- A New Zealand judge has made a 9-year-old girl a ward of the court so that her name can be changed from Talula Does the Hula From Hawaii, the country's national news agency reported Thursday.
Family Court Judge Rob Murfitt listed a series of unusual names that New Zealand parents had given their children, and said he was concerned that such strange monikers would create hurdles for them as they grew up.
"It makes a fool of the child and sets her up with a social disability and handicap," the New Zealand Press Association quoted the judge as saying.
Among the names Murfitt cited: twins named Benson and Hedges -- after a brand of cigarettes; Violence; and Number 16 Bus Shelter.
Some parents had named children after six-cylinder Ford cars, the news agency reported.
The Registrar General of Births, Deaths and Marriages said in a statement that it had rejected names including Fish and Chips, Yeah Detroit, Stallion, Twisty Poi -- a staple food in Polynesian cuisine -- and Sex Fruit.
A lawyer for Talula Does the Hula From Hawaii said the girl is so embarrassed by her name that friends know her as "K."
Last month, an judge in the U.S. state of Illinois allowed a school bus driver to legally change his first name to "In God" and his last name to "We Trust."
But an appeals court in the state of New Mexico ruled against a man -- named Variable -- who wanted to change his name to a two-word phrase that contains a four-letter expletive and expresses opposition to censorship.

Ano, je. "Sasa" je skratka (shortcut) pro Alexandra. Je to ale zensky jmeno.

Tak s jmenem "Sas" jsem zena, ano? To je noviny pro mne

Kamaradi te volaji "Sasa" ... anebo "Sasha" ??

[MellySingsDoom]

Obvykle - "Sas" (anglicky: "Sach", jako cesky/slovensky "Sas").

[_slavo_]

Aah, I see. Using our punctuation, it would be "saš".

I like it when you flip back to english.

makes me think of a radio station that's ALMOST too far away to listen to.

sometimes, at the top of a hill, you can hear it perfectly.

My first name is meh at best. I hate that it rhymes with "osh-kosh" and "gosh" and have gotten angry at people because of this. And there was no less than 7,556,701 Josh's in my grade-high schools.
Future childs? Anything but Josh or Richard. Girl's names I'm not picky.

Smauel Dhale > Samuel Dahle, I think
too bad

[schizophrenicroom]

i loved nickelodeon magazine so much. they messed up my name sometimes- "edaj".

[Sonic Youth 37]

Their recipes for edible green slime were always the best.

[schizophrenicroom]

i loved how sometimes they'd interview rosie o'donnell or drew carey and people that really didn't have anything to do with children's entertainment.

[Sonic Youth 37]

Rosie I can see because she was in Harriet the Spy. Drew Carey in a children's magazine is just creepy.
