Jett was a powerful woman, a fine lady, and a real ball-buster.

My grandmother (Jett's daughter) was named Etta...and she named her daughter (my mother) Betta. (Okay...just kidding. But she DID name my mother Betty.)

I suppose I'm fortunate that I got named Jennifer and not something continuing the tradition...like Hetta/Hetty or Letta/Letty. Too bad I'm never going to have a daughter of my own.....

See and that is what makes you so sweet.

In case you feel like I am hiding behind my handle; my first name is 'Galen'. Okay?

My daughter hates the name Missy. She makes that comment everytime she sees a Melissa.

My name is Faina. No one ever knows what to think of that. Except how to pronounce it. Its funny how Americans can't put 5 letters together if they have never seen it.

Lol....spaseeba

Yes, its phonetic. Fah-ina

Often foreigners can pronounce it the first time, however I have known Americans who know me for months and still couldn't say it.

Call me loose moraled but I tend to lean towards hooking up with guys with names I haven't sexed yet. I haven't hooked up with a Luke yet. I like the name Madison, I dated a Tim who was a moron, Neil was my first love, Gus was my unrequited love, Aaron was in porn, a girl named Kathy sued me for throwing a beer bottle at her, Risa also tried to sue because I pushed her down the stairs at a party, Taylor is my best friend and her daughter's name is Brody, and Jared is puss-whipped.

I hate nicknames like "bobby" and "timmy", it really imasculates a man.

This is all relative to my friends, so it's different for everyone. And hey, my name is Tute!
