I will have to tell my mum, because that's her middle name.
Matt's camera needs its clock setting.

Hopefully taking someone away for the weekend!
(I don't like to say "I *am* taking..." because I'm sure if I do that I'll jinx everything and five minutes later she'll email me telling me she has to cancel)

Bette Midler's on Martha (American TV!) because tonight's the first night of Hanukkah, and, um, she's promoting her new Christmas album.

That was when I told my school I was gonna start taking obscure Celtic holidays like Samhain and Beltaine.

We didn't have a choice! We got all the Jewish holidays and "got" all the Christian holidays shoved down our throats!

I actually wanna buy a Christmas Yule Tree this year. They've got living ones across the road, and even though I seem to be able to kill every plant (except the ficus) dead that comes through my door, I'd love to have a living gymnosperm in the garden. I could reuse it every year!
Plus, tree worship is totally pagan. I love it.

I thought Jacob was a different name from James, as there's both Jacobs and James in the Bible.
― masonic boom (kate), Friday, 15 December 2006 15:47 (seventeen years ago) link
James is English form of the Late Latin Jacomus which was derived from Ιακωβος (Iakobos), the New Testament Greek form of יַעֲקֹב (Ya'aqov) (see JACOB). This is the name of two apostles in the New Testament. The first was Saint James the Greater, the apostle John's brother, who was beheaded by Herod Agrippa in the Book of Acts. The second was James the Lesser, son of Alphaeus. Another James (known as James the Just) is also mentioned in the Bible as being the brother of Jesus.
(I wonder if that greek and hebrew will post)
While Jacob is From the Latin Jacobus, which was from the Greek Ιακωβος (Iakobos), which was from the Hebrew name יַעֲקֹב (Ya'aqov). In the Old Testament, Jacob (later called Israel) was the son of Isaac and Rebecca and the father of the twelve founders of the twelve tribes of Israel. He was born holding his twin brother Esau's heel, and his name is explained as meaning "holder of the heel" or "supplanter". Other theories claim that it is in fact derived from a hypothetical name like יַעֲקֹבְאֵל (Ya'aqov'el) meaning "may God protect".

Dammit, I'm trying to remember what his fake Republican name is that he writes his windup articles under, but I forget. I want to say Milton Keynes but that's too funny for him.

From the Greek name Áéêáôåñéíç (Aikaterine). The etymology is debated: it could derive from the earlier Greek name ‘Åêáôåñéíç (Hekaterine), which came from ‘åêáôåñïò (hekateros) "each of the two"; it could derive from the name of the goddess HECATE; it could be related to Greek áéêéá (aikia) "torture"; or it could be from a Coptic name meaning "my consecration of your name". The Romans associated it with Greek êáèáñïò (katharos) "pure" and changed their spelling from Katerina to Katharina to reflect this. The name belonged to a 4th-century saint and martyr from Alexandria who was tortured on the famous Catherine wheel. Another saint by this name was Catherine of Siena, a 14th-century mystic. This name was also borne by two empresses of Russia, including Catherine the Great, and by three of Henry VIII's wives.
Also, aikia means "torture" in Greek, bwah hah hah hah.

Excellent. My mum has just gone to work. She brings the dog and he runs around for a bit before he hops into her Caddy, the door shuts, off they go. She has just spent the past half hour telling me that I shouldn't disrespect GWB and that Obama has Parkinson's.

What American accent do you have?Your Result: The NortheastJudging by how you talk you are probably from north Jersey, New York City, Connecticut or Rhode Island. Chances are, if you are from New York City (and not those other places) people would probably be able to tell if they actually heard you speak.

What American accent do you have? Your Result: The West
Your accent is the lowest common denominator of American speech. Unless you're a SoCal surfer, no one thinks you have an accent. And really, you may not even be from the West at all, you could easily be from Florida or one of those big Southern cities like Dallas or Atlanta.
