Remember when you could by Sanforized or other preshrunk clothing, guaranteed not to shrink? Whatever happened to that? Why does everything shrink now?

I noticed most of the eggs in the shops are brown, so I wondered if people buy white ones to color at Easter, or don't color eggs, or what?

I do NOT want to start flames going, but I'm very curious.

I know how people who give their children ordinary names feel about unusual names -- they laugh. Sorry, but they do. They even trade stories of the funniest names. And there's a certain amount of snobbery involved, too, figuring that people who give their children strange names must themselves be not too smart or not too educated.

So, how do people who give their children unusual, made-up names look on those who give ordinary names? Do they just think we're stupid? Boring? Unimaginative? Can't think of anything else? Don't love our kids much?

As I said, I don't want flames. I've tried to be honest, though, and I would really like some honest answers. How do people who name their child Merlot feel about those who name their child Mary?
