-----------------------------------------------
Name: Birdley Janet Joseph Morley
Name people actually use: Yank; Bird
Reason for unusual name people actually use: Being from Canada his boss thinks it's both ironic and insulting to call him an american. what steve doesn't know is that it's not that Canadians don't like americans ... but that you don't like them and that that mistaking him for someone you don't like before you've got to know him // his mom called him birdley when he was in trouble and he needed a name that wasn't associated with broken vases, pocketed cookies and pooped pants.

Preferred Karaoke Song: that one the whole of 141 sung at the last night out at that bar we never went to until our last year because it was a shady, scuzzy, beer fly trap before.

Name people actually use: Tommy/T
Reason for unusual name people actually use:My friend andrew started calling me Tommy when we first started hanging out, and since we usually went out to parties and bars together I would end up being refered to as "Tommy". T is what some of my high school friends called/call me.

Most Disturbing Trait: the fact that i check brads blog for updates religiously, its like clockwork
does this make brad frightened that he might have a stalker: nah, not at all
is he aware that no one thinks he is actually funny and they just laugh anyway to make him feel good about himself: huh?
Name: Daniel John Barry Grant
Name people actually use: Dan, Big Dan, Tiny, Slammin Danny G
Reason for unusual name people actually use: well the first is an unclever nickname that was used to distinguish me from another Dan in residence. also I am big, so it stuck. The second is a pure Nick Vipond name because he calls everyone by nicknames. the last is from High School and the story of where it came from is too long. but some people still use it.

Preferred Simpsons Character: Also a tie. Wiggum/Moe
Most Disturbing Trait: the fact that he has unwittingly become the greybeard at his school to the point where a certain Zachary Mealia compared him to Sinatra after the demise of the Rat Pack when he was reduced to doing gigs for cheap steaks.
Oh I missed the karaoke song. dammit. definetly Jack and Diane by John Mellencamp when solo. but when with the boys, it is of course, Strokin by Sir Clarence Carter.
I also don't smoke.
Brad your template sucks.
