At work today, I suddenly saw the name Aguirre on a paper. I was quite startled, had to look twice to make sure I read it correct.
I suppose it's not an unusual Spanish name, but I've never seen it in a non-BBM context before.
It added a little something to my day. :D

Ennis wouldn't know from Blackberries either! ;)

Thanks for sharing that, Meryl!
"Personalize your BBM bar code"
Makes me think of Jack and Ennis feeling the necks of their beer bottles while talking about the 42 sheep; of Jack walking up to Jimbo; of colored handkerchiefs in left and right pockets; even of Lureen talking of matin' calls, and Cassie saying "drunks like you."

And of the lonely fellow in the Mint Bar with the hungry look in his eyes.

Didn't think of "bar code" like that, but it sure enough applies to our BBM. ;) 8)

I'm watching the movie The Front, where Woody Allen's character is a front for blacklisted scriptwriters. A producer says of him, "He's the best writer we've got. Hell, he's the only writer we've got." Accent was quite different, but delivery exactly the same.
