sandy is too metropolitan. LaVerl should have been from Panguitch.

I resent that, my wife, Hilma, and I are both from Panguitch and weez modern as you. Now Tropic, that's rural - ask Lane about some of their names.

In my experience, it doesn't matter. Utahns name their kids wierd names. Normal names are not the norm. They have a book about utah names.

I don't know, Michael. I've never met a Venla or a LaPriel or a ReVoe who wasn't from either Beaver or Duchesne County. Unless you're hanging with the over-70 crowd in Sandy, you're more likely to encounter a "Kyeleighanne" or a "Makenna" or a "Kynzee" than a "LaVerl."
(Michelle - Mar 6, 2006 02:27:06 PM)

My only point was that if it is utah newborn it is rare to hear of a bob, jon, Edward, etc. Utahns want to have unique names. LaVerl sounds like a perfect utah name.
All I have to say is well done!

During the early days of the empire, because of tight budgets, PVC sabers were standard issue; then Walmart came along and started offering real light sabers at a price even a six-year-old could afford.

ha ha. This was funny. Actually, although you can't see it, Darth and Anakin both had VERY realistic sabers. The one Darth is holding had a permanent shaft attached. I assume it lit up at night. He also had one on his belt. You can see it on his left side barely.

I've seen this before. The login is case-insensitive, but the code that keeps others from deleting/changing your caption IS case-sensitive. Sign out and sign in again with your exact username...if you can't remember it, have the site email it to you...then you should be able to delete/edit.
