true story......
Years ago, we had a pet bunny.
I named him Stu
And trained my two year old how to respond when people asked him what his bunny's name was
He'd raise his arm in the air and proudly say "His name is Stu - and it's not just a name, it's a DESTINY!!!!"
After which my wife's friends would invariable turn to me and, with exasperation in their voices say - "Rich!!!!"
Pretty much the same tone I'd get when I'd respond to a crying toddler (not loud enough for the kid to hear) with "No, no - mommy's not abandoning you. She just doesn't love you anymore"
