Default Evan

Damn, I remember when I was a kid, I had a nice unique name. Nobody else was named Evan. Then in college, way back in the '80's I met another Evan. Not too bad, but he was a friend of my roommate. Again, not too bad, my roomy could just call us by our first name and last initial. Problem was, his last name began with the same initial as mine. I ended up telling him to just call me by my last name.

Anyway, now days it seems that Evan is becoming the new John! They're pouring out of the woodwork. I can't go anywhere where there isn't somebody screaming after their little brat, "Evan, come here! Evan, don't do that! Evan, blah, blah, etc."

Now, I come here and we have Evan's all over the place. Sheesh.

P.S. It's New Year's Eve here and I'm druck.

I remember you introducing yourself to a fellow HBT'er as "Evan, not Evan!," so that's how I refer to you now...

Evan, did you even think that they were yelling at YOU???????

I guess I can understand that. I'm running into Lorenas all over the place.

When I was in 1st grade, 5 of us out of about 30 students in my classroom were named Mark. On Saturday mornings in religion class, 6 of us were Marks.

Funny thing, though, now that I'm almost 50 I don't seem to run into many Marks my age-- or even any age, for that matter.
