Small world, no?

I heard on the news today that Senator Kennedy had gone under the knife for the recently diagnosed tumor. Best of luck to him with that. I don’t like his politics at all, but in this I can do naught but wish him well.
Of course, he’s not going to need too much luck. He had the best neurosurgeon in the world.
I should know. He was my neurosurgeon, too.

And people wonder why I mutter to myself so much

From Mostly Cajun, we have the latest episode of “The Name Game.” It’s a regular feature there, and reading it has the same horrid fascination as watching a train wreck; you can’t turn away.
A former employee of one of the many medical offices I frequent just had a baby this past week. I heard from one of her co-workers that the child had been named “Jayden” or “Jaden” or something similarly homophonic.
I have no idea if that’s supposed to be a boy’s or a girl’s name.
