Not So Unusual!

"A nice guy? He belongs to the country club, the tennis club and probably even the damn yacht club. I'll bet he doesn't know a ball stat from a schedule. This is your sister we are talking about. You want her involved with some flashy, sweet-talking, Southern hick who fixes teeth for a living?"

-- from the hero to the heroine's sister Indiscreet Catherine Judd

An online friend said she's never seen my name before and she travelled a lot. [Emphasis is hers.] I pointed out that for every 'unusual' name, there is at least ten other people around the world who have that name. The average number would be roughly one hundred. She laughed at my face, and challenged me to bring her a list of ten people who share my name. Ooh, I love challenges. Read and weep, baby.

• Maili Montgomery
• DJ Maili
• Maili Poag
• Maili from Brazil
• Maili Langstrumpf
• Maili Lama
• Maili Yardley
• Maili Bailey
• Maili the Mini Snowboarder
• Actor David Anders's sister

Buwahahahaha! Bu-wahahahahaha! OK, I cheated. All these are without the grave accent, e.g. Màili. Admittedly, it'd be extremely difficult if I were to expect to track down other Màilies because most web search engines don't recognise accents. Still, I'm quite chuffed that I managed to win the challenge. :D Right. That's me back to do the film meme that I started a week ago. I was grappling with it when Will asked what I was doing. I explained what a film meme is and la la, and he asked, "Why are you taking it so seriously?" I said that I wasn't. He gave me the "This is me you're talking to" look. We held a staring contest for a few seconds, and I backed down because I knew he was right. Hm. I'm swiping it clean and start again, but with a much shorter list [the original list is so long that it's not funny] and I'll try not to be so serious. The listmaker in me will be locked somewhere deep inside. My film meme should be up in an hour or so. :> Link of the Day: Top 15 Bad Romance Novel Opening Lines Be good, be bad & be safe.
