(no subject)

Our long national nightmare is over. I refer, of course, to the presidential campaigning season.

In unrelated news the Weather Channel has decided to start naming big-ass winter storms. This is actually pretty much how hurricane naming got started, with weather forecasters naming various large storms to make them easier to talk about on TV without confusing people, so I'm good with that. What I find amusing is the current name list.

Athena
Brutus
Caesar
Draco
Euclid
Freyr
Gandolf (their spelling; apparently this spelling is "A character in a 1896 fantasy novel in a pseudo-medieval countryside.")
Helen
Iago
Jove
Khan
Luna
Magnus
Nemo
Orko ("The thunder god in Basque mythology" OH COME ON WE ALL KNOW YOU WERE WATCHING HE-MAN)
Plato
Q ("The Broadway Express subway line in New York City." Uh huh.)
Rocky
Saturn
Triton
Ukko
Virgil
Walda
Xerxes
Yogi ("People who do yoga")
Zeus


So... yeah.

Eh, why not.

So I want you to ask me something you think you should know about me. Something that should be obvious but you have no idea about, or something obscure you just have to know. Ask away. All topics, within reason, are open for discussion.
