An Appropriate Or Not

[emmie]

name, have a look at the top story, of the US Mayor,
makes our politicians look positively pedestrian, there is something wrong with the heading, hopeful, his name is Anthony, is this Sky news having a laugh, though doubt his wife is amused

lol, what an unfortunate surname!

[emmie]

i remember this in the US, slang for either hot dog or penis, take your pick

[emmie]

he doesn't seemed to have learned his lesson either, wonder why it says hopeful weiner...

[naomi24]

Speaking of names, I gather you've changed yours?

[emmie]

i have, but i didn't change it myself, it must have been the request that went in when they had a name amnesty a while back,

[emmie]

i remember going to see a Doctor Croker, that was amusing..

[naomi24]

Just checking. Thanks.

[emmie]

it was a total surprise to me, glad of course...
any names that you liked that are appropriate to the person, their job, just to while a way the time a little

What am I looking at?

[Maydup]

Top story now the Royal Baby. Can you tell us the gag instead?

Its this one... http://news.sky.com/story/1119555/anthony-weiner-admits-to-new-lewd-messages

I think its hilarious.... a not un common name though in the US.

the slang word is usually spelt wiener.

Actually, I think Boris would behave much the same way but probably without the photos.

Didn't read the link, but Mr. Weiner is inserting himself... uh... rising to the effort... uhh... looking with one eye towards the mayoral race after resigning from the U.S. Congress a couple of years ago due to his unrestrained sexting (texting of pictures of himself) on some of the social networks.
Surprisingly (maybe not that surprising considering New Yorker's) he's been out front up to this point... uh... (his wife, by the way, was a close confidant to Hillary Clinton while she (Clinton) was Secretary of State)...

The betting money says if he doesn't pull out, he'll keep it up and may even win... uh...

[emmie]

didn't realise that would change the link, never mind, Clanad thanks,
