"Filling up my head"

Labor Day: Babysitting No-El in Plainfield. I write No-El because Noel looks like the pronunciation of a boy's name: Noel. However, my niece's name happens to be Noel pronounced like Noel in the song "The First Noel." Confused? Well, the next kid's going to be named Preston apparently whenever he decides to come around. So their girl will be named a boy's name and their boy will be named a wierd name. Maybe the offspring of Lisa and Andrew will have better luck with names. Of course, Lisa recently asked me what I thought of the name Sterling, so they may be in trouble after all. I refuse to name my kids any adjective that describes only the noun Silver. So both Sterling and Long-John are automatically ruled out. Sorry, yet-to-be-named future child. Sorry.

There is a button you can check that turns on word verification, that way, the "advertising" comments won't happen. Also, I found the last sentence to be quite hillarious. Good work, Rosenberg.
