I was reading chapter 110 and a question sprang to mind - did you name Jeremy after Jeremy Irons?
--- End quote ---
no I didn't. I wanted him to have a name he didn't like, so I picked the name of someone I knew really disliked his name - my neighbor Jeremy from when I lived in Seattle. Jeremy was known for being extremely animated during all-weekend marathons of Dungeons and Dragons in the apartment above mine, and he giggled like a schoolgirl. For many weeks I was convinced that there was a party girl up there with the three boys servicing all of them and letting out that ceiling-penetrating giggle.
All the time it was Jeremy, and they were playing D & D. Go figure.
yb:
Perhaps I have been influenced by Jeremy Irons, the name Jeremy impressed me as someone more on the intellectual side, so Dupree was certainly more suitable. But as the story goes, I'm getting more and more used to 'Jeremy', and feel that the name 'Jeremy Dupree' suits him very much - conflicting and contrasting just like the owner himself.

Louise how do you just pluck things like this out of the air? While I know what an adam's apple is, I've never heard of "hyoid eminence". It not something that comes up in conversation all that often!
louisev:
I dunno, I guess I paid attention in science or something.
actually... looking at Gray's anatomy... the hyoid is the top lump, and the thyroid cartilage below it is the second and more prominent one, so I guess I must not have been paying that much attention in science.
and yes i would like a little nibble of each of em!
