While Grim's Away

...the peasantry will play. Full disclosure: this is going to be an utterly mindless post.

When the Editorial Staff were expecting our first grandchild (promptly dubbed "The Burrito" by his father upon arrival) we only half-jokingly began suggesting Manly Names for the prospective grand-progeny. Can you tell we were hoping for a boy? Since our eldest boy is of the law enforcement persuasion, our first Helpful Suggestions were "Law" and (our personal favorite) ...

[drum roll]

..."Justice".

Inexplicably, our well thought out contributions were heartlessly disregarded. Apparently, the offspring had their own ideas about what our grandchild should be called. The *nerve* of some people.

This is what we get for all those years of loving care and attention. O! How sharper than a serpent's tooth it is, to have a thankless child...

But hope springs eternal in the grandmaternal breast, and so we have not given up. There is always the chance of further rugrats down the road. Consequently, we were gratified to see this list of The Manliest Names in the World, and even happier to see it included one of our fav actors.

Check it out. And feel free to suggest a name for our next grandchild in the comments section.
