Being famous is such a gift for me because small things make people's lives brighter. You just shake somebody's hand. You just smile and write your name and people will talk about it for the rest of their lives.
There's such a large direct mail campaign for all of the services. Names of people who aren't eligible to enlist are sometimes included.
When they told people to evacuate at the Superdome, as they came in why didn't they start taking their names and information so they can post it? It shouldn't be a situation where people have to post to find their relatives.
The attraction is that there must be interesting and possibly sad stories behind these place names, many of which were given by early European settlers. Unfortunately, a lot of the more unusual names were for places that are just too tiny to feature in the atlas.
Edible names are what drives me as a musician. My next band will be called the Hot Dogs.
It meant that she belonged some place. She was a Brooklyn girl with a Brooklyn name and a Brooklyn accent. She didn't want to change into a bit of this and a bit of that.

A huge star - and so little known elsewhere in the world.
Just what I've caught in the last three weeks is amazing. I can zoom into every register . . . the other night we had a fight that involved 21 people and from freeze framing the fight we were able to identify all 21 of them, ban them from the club and turn their names over to the police . . . I'm able to for the first time ever to watch the whole club.
Canada is said to have got its name from the two Spanish words aca and nada, signifying 'there is nothing here.'
People called me the godmother of punk, but I never name myself anything.
Nothing in our politics is any longer driven or designed by individual humans who have a name and a face; we have sunk from theism into impersonal and depersonalizing deism, a scheme of rule by alien and implacable abstract metaphysical forces.
