Or Dana. Before the X-Files came on TV all I knew were mostly boys with that name. Now it seems to be the other way around.

Hey, “Lezlie”, you can make Nate stop by calling him “Sylvester.” (Sylvester is the name Trudy gave him in the September 25 stip. With the breakup so recent, it would definitely shut Nate up.)

As long as Teddy is not called Ashley, I’m fine with it.

Francis should tell them that Francis is pronounced fran-sis and Frances is pronounced fran-ses. Totally different.

It could have been worse. It could have been a Boy Named Sue. Or, A Girl Named Johnny Cash.
