THEREFORE I do decree that all celebrities be sterilized upon receiving their Screen Actors Guild card or their first record contract.

I propose we sterilize anyone who proposes such a proposal.


Unfortunately I think the press and rag mags, in their greed, have made anyone in public eye a target for such silly things as this. Personally, I really don't care what names celebrities choose. It's their business....just as it was my business when it came time to choose the names for my kids.

My kids go to school with kids of diverse cultures and some of the names are very different and unique....and some are tongue twisters. It's pretty cool for them to realize that not everyone is the same and should be accepted for who they are.

Is there some sort of sign in sheet?



I happen to like the names Julia Roberts chose for her kids. Something about Hazel Patricia and Phinneaus Walter that I find classy and elegant.

now they were out - they were wild with freedom. They weren't thinking about the slavery of poverty. Or the slavery of welfare and food stamps. The rest of us would be all right until the poor learned how to make atom bombs in their basements.
