"One is known as Bama and other Little Bama. Their father is also Rodney Shorter."

There is an obscene, extremely juvenile joke about our president begging to be born here.

The University of South Carolina football team has two half brothers named Gerald Dixon (one May be referred to as "Jr.") this year. Same age, same father, different mothers. Both stud DTs, like their father.

Lot of the BS involves blacks.

Given so many movies purport to be 'based on truth' and their massive influence on public opinion, how come there is so little effort on the part of the media to debunk these movies?

Is it like media's pushing the Obie fairytale?
If it serves the narrative, print the legend?

Steve, have you read Joel Kotkin's recent piece on the emerging "feudal" California? I get the sense that he reads your stuff. Although he never seems to connect the dots, at least not explicitly in writing.

Did I ever tell you that Mrs. McCave
Had twenty-three sons, and she named them all Dave?

Well, she did. And that wasn't a smart thing to do.
You see, when she wants one, and calls out "Yoo-Hoo!
Come into the house, Dave!" she doesn't get one.
All twenty-three Daves of hers come on the run!

They had different middle names though. I imagine they went by their middle names. Still weird though. I don't understand the point of giving them the same first name but different middle ones.

Steve,

This is off topic, but I think your friend, Uncle Tim, has posted a comment to this news article in the Tennessean about Tennessee being named by the FBI as the state with the highest violent crime rate.

Tim jumps into the thread to correct someone for noticing that Memphis might drive the crime stats for Tennessee. I guess it could be an imposter, or a different Tim Wise, but it looks like it is our favorite anti-racist.

Feel free iSteve readers to challenge Uncle Tim.

"Better than Ra-lon or Know-shawn."

but is it better than Ha Ha Clinton-Dix?

note that retard culture er, black american culture, has taken over the NBA to such a suffocating degree now, that the league is actually considering allowing the players to wear jerseys once or twice a season with their nicknames on the back instead of their real names.

is this still the same country i grew up in? now, i suppose this is not much different than soccer players in brazil, who are allowed to come up with single name nicknames and use those instead of their real names, and everybody has to take their goofy made up names seriously. but brazil is a garbage country with a garbage culture, so that's not so surprising.

but in the NBA how many players actually have a real nickname, and what will the average players, who clearly do not have any nickname, come up with for their jersey? i'm fascinated to see what utterly stupid crap some of these guys come up with. he hate me, anyone?

In response to "Ailing Midwestern Cities...."

African-Americans, who make up 43 percent of Dayton’s population, agree with the goals of the city’s program but said they were waiting to see the results. Derrick L. Foward, president of the Dayton Unit N.A.A.C.P., said he was concerned that immigrant businesses were not hiring enough black employees.

“I think Welcome Dayton is a very good initiative,” Mr. Foward said. “But I would like to see more diversity hiring as part of their practice from the start.”


African-Americans just don't or refuse to get it that's why they stay losing while others pass them by. Good luck with begging immigrants to hire you.

The one which involves Asians, 21 is seriously funny. The article's writer complains that Hollywood re-wrote the MIT Blackjack Team from mostly Asian to mostly white, explicitly callig this an instance of pro-white racism.

To see why this is funny, imagine that Hollywood had not done the re-write. Instead, it had presented the truth: a squad of Asian grinds who have been granted admission to MIT don't spend their time studying or giving back to the culture that has given them so much. Instead, they spend their time relentlessly training to develop the skills necessary to rip off unsuspecting white people. Oh, and their leader is an Asian transvestite.

"I'm sure an experienced semiotician could explain why boys but not girls get named after their parents."

They were often named after parents, usually mothers or grandmothers. Very common, and was in my own family; but for some reason less so now, probably because female names, more than male, seem to have trends.

In ancient Rome, girls bore feminine forms of their fathers' names. In fact, both sexes in the same family had the same names, with adjustments made for birth place and gender. That's one of the things that make Roman history confusing.

Families in medieval England sometimes did this - it acted as a guarantee of the name's survival into adulthood, even if only one of boys made it that far.

Former British chancellor of the exchequer Nigel Lawson (don't be fooled - he was a Baltic Jew of fairly recent extraction) called his daughter Nigella, a name that he invented as far as I'm aware.

As a fairly young Englishman, I'm not sure I know any males who have the same given names as their fathers. This was certainly a common practice for much of the last thousand years (partly because of a fairly limited stock of names) but it's seen as rather gauche and vulgar now. It's common for a man to give his own father's first name to his son, which strikes me as a neat approach.

This problem could have been foreseen in about five seconds of pre-naming contemplation. Low time preference strikes again!
