cyrano: (Address Me)
[personal profile] cyrano
Friday! Question day! No question too small, no answer too large!
Or something like that.
Three tables, no waiting, no payments until March, and *we* pay the sales tax!
Plus, if you act now, we'll throw in the Ronco stupid detector (a $50 value) absolutely free!
Why? Because we're insane!

Nobody but an elf can really use your True Name against you, and sadly there aren't many elves around.

I guess I'm just from that generation where a person was proud of their given name because it was part of their heritage. That doesn't seem to be the case anymore.

As I get older it seems the world shares less and less of my values. I guess that's part of getting older but it really sucks.

Yeah, I don't really feel like my name connects me to my heritage. Of course, my heritage (the one I claim) only goes back about fifty or sixty years. I'm named for an uncle who had passed on before I was born and whose family (a wife, with a daughter who died very young) I never met. My ancestry comes mostly from various and sundry parts of Europe, a hundred and some years ago. My heritage, to any recognizable extent, I have created myself or taken from my parents.
