My family only refer to me by my full name, when they are frustrated, or angry with me.:shrug:
Often they feel this way for no reason. Otherwise I'm called by my nickname.

Lynx point Siamese cats are called Tabby points in England, which is an accurate description of their mixed breed heritage.

Certain species of plants in the genus Bryophyllum are viviparous,
and they reproduce by sprouting entire new plants from the tips of their leaves.

The late "Dimebag" Darrell Abbot, formerly of Pantera and Damageplan, is buried in Moore Memorial Gardens Cemetary in Arlington, TX, which is located directly between Dallas and Fort Worth. Arlington is also home to the Six Flags Over Texas theme park, the Texas Rangers professional baseball team, and soon will be home to the Dallas Cowboys NFL franchise. Dallas Cowboys are currently building an amazingly huge and modern stadium in Arlington, just down the block from the Texas Rangers ballpark. Strangely, Wal-Mart built a Supercenter directly across the street from site of the new Cowboys stadium.
