Have you an unusual name?

My real name is not that common and so I have considered and begun starting to Google others with the same name, as well as a search on Facebook.
Interesting little project, since not too many exist, and so the idea was short lived.
I told you all that I have too much time on my hands, and this is my proof!
All this suggests that it is a harmless experiment.

Today was a quiet day on the home front, which I suppose you all realize from my lack of ingenuity to create something more useful or beneficial to do and that can be a good thing…
Yesterday, the declaration of a named storm, Alberto in the Atlantic, our first in the season was hovering over South Carolina, and now is about a hundred and five miles north of Savannah Georgia and it was so out of the usual that it did make our news. It has sustained winds of fifty miles an hour with gusts to sixty-five, now lowered to sixty.
Not a hurricane, and will not become one, but a tropical storm and worthy to be named.
We have had winds that powerful with just normal rainstorms not at this time of the year, in the winter.
This one made the news due to it being earlier than the average systems, but the last time this happened was in 2003, so the weather pros say.
And they all seem to state it has no bearing on the seasons storms, which the meteorologists that work on these things have said that we are not in for a more than average predictable season of such thingies.

I would be amiss if I did not congratulate and send best wishes to Mr. and Mrs. Mark Zuckerberg on their nuptials yesterday. He married a doctor, a pediatrician; she is his inspiration for his new app for organ donations; and I am more than sure that his parents are very happy, Mazol Tov to everyone involved in their family and friends too!

There is something to be said for marrying your best friend, and they really knew each other when, that is as students at Harvard. Too bad Mark was a drop out, and I do wonder with her education and being a doctor whatever will they be able to talk about? KIDDING!
But in most relationships similar backgrounds are supposed to help… but not with ours, we are extreme opposites in our backgrounds,… but in spite of that we are married forty-one years and still going strong, knew each other for a mere three and a half prior to that. So there’s another concept shot to heck.
We for instance are not of the same faith, our families were not of the same political parties, one set of parents were together until death did they part while the other were divorced, siblings were two biological for one, and the other a half and three steps for the that one… see way different.
But too same doesn’t work either, and the age that you marry has nothing to do with it either.
We were twenty and twenty-one, too young by many standards, but our one son waited until twenty-eight and divorced two years later and now is on his second wife… the other has chosen not to marry but have a chain of monogamous relationships, not our call… all I am saying is love is in the eye of the beholder and should adjust through the years to maintain that relationship.
But I have been here before and its none of my business what you do…, but in closing I will say one thing that is relevant, it’s the who you marry, that is, the one you love and truly love and can not imagine not being with, and when things get rough, and they do have a way of doing that, always remember why you fell in love in the first place and go there…without anger, and you will have your own long tales of love to reiterate to the next generation TA DA!

On that somewhat upbeat concept to ponder, allow me to be the first to wish you a very happy good night and ask you to kindly count your blessings and share those overages and we will too!

And next time please be here or be square, ya hear?
