Completely off topic - sorry!

Doesn't this sound like fun? A radio station in Baltimore (I think) placed a bunch of kegs around DC, Virginia, etc. and when you find one your "team" gets to go to a Velvet Revolver concert.

First of all - great idea!! Secondly, the team names were hilarious. There was Team Get-R-Done, Team Lesbian Nation, Team Remove Flounder's Feeding Tube (he's a DJ), Team Scarlet Begonia, Team Who's Yer Driver, etc.

Now this is my idea of Easter.......

Hi Kit,

Love it! There was a bar here serving tequila shots last night in the halves of those little plastic Easter eggs that we used to hide in the yard, for the kids to find!

Gives New meaning to the name brand thereof: "Fill n' Thrill"!!

That Easter Keg thing would go over WELL here in Texas!

Hoppy Easter everyone!

Truly,
Cupcake
(who was actually Born on an Easter Sunday, and my Mom(19 yrs old at the time, and obviously High as a Nasa shuttle from the drugs administered for the birth!) wanted to name me 'Bunny', but thank goodness my Grammma stopped her!) whew, that was a Close one!

Cupcake-

I went to college with a girl who was born on Easter -- her last name was "Hare" and her parents named her "Esther." As if that weren't tragic enough, the mother's maiden name was "Binney", so there you go -- that was her MIDDLE name.

Esther Binney Hare.

It might have been remotely okay (well, kinda...) if this girl looked like, say, Sparkle -- you know, cute, blonde, spunky, or had the wits to turn it into an advantage, but as it turns out she was not blessed in the either the looks or good-natured humor department... I suspect the unfortunate name and all the joking she'd had to endure must have had something to do with it.

I always hoped she'd gone on to change her name and reclaim some normalcy in her life. Maybe she's reading this now!!! :-)

Happy Easter!

Hi Y'all,

That beats the people I know with funky names..Chanda Lear and Breck Wahl ! Oh, and Mike Howe==when you say his name it Always sounds like "My Cow", poor guy! I guess Joan isn't too bad; I was named after Joan Crawford and Vivian Leigh, so I am Joan Leigh--I Said my Mom was young! And good thing she did not like the movie stars Tallulah Bankhead and Hedda Gabler, I might have been "Tallulah Gabler"? ewwwwwwwwww

I am spending my Easter at work, 11 hours on the US Customs floor, with 10 thousand people who Forgot that Everyone ELSE would be trying to get home at the last minute, so the kids could go back to school on Monday morning! But, it won't bother me...there are those little malted milk birdie eggs, from my boss, waiting for me!!!

How about you all?

truly,
Cupcake

LOL That's someone who is going to get married and change her name as soon as possible. :)

I work with a guy with the last name of "Lane". I told him he should've named his daughter "Lois"- she'd be out of the house and married off by the time she was 19. LOL
