I absolutely LOVE the name Jack, and Joshua too. I decided the other day I want to name my first son Joshua, I just think it's great. I like Chloe and Charlotte too, I must be common. :P

What? No Jake on the list?! And, c'mon, parents, we need to get more Ennises in this world.

I'll never be blessed with children, but I am toying with the idea of getting a couple of little dogs when I retire. Guess what their names will be?  ;D

I love this line! It was the direct inspiration for my very first "Brokeback" haiku, which I composed back in March (seems so long ago now):

Little dog in coat
Gray-white sheep seeking mountain
Blue boy seeking love.
