Skipper sent me this e-mail last night … and I decided I’d post my answers here. The instructions I received were as follows:<\/p>\n
I’ve done these before… but this one is a little bit different. Please DO this and send it back. It isn’t hard, and it’s great when you start to get people’s answers back. Okay, here’s what you’re supposed to do…and try not to be LAME and spoil the fun.<\/p>\n
Copy (not forward) this entire e-mail and paste it onto a new e-mail that you will send. Change all of the answers so that they apply to you. Then, send this to a whole bunch of people you know *INCLUDING* the person who sent it to you. The theory is that you will learn a lot of little known facts about your friends. It is fun and easy. Remember to send it back to the person who sent it to you! <\/i><\/p>\n

I haven’t anything I’m really hooked on using … for a boy I would consider a namesake of some sort, my husband\/the father’s name, a grandfather’s name, close family member or friend … it’s a question that makes me laugh, I had always taken the position that if I ever was fortunate enough to have children, I would defer to whatever my wife really, really wanted.
