Nykola.com Updates
October 5, 2004
First off, this is not a "political website". I leave that stuff to smarter individuals. I do opine on political issues, but it should be known that everything is fair game 'round these parts. So don't get all mad if you want commentary on a presidential debate and instead you get a photo montage of Al Sharpton's hair. If anything, I spend more time yapping about popular culture as it relates to politics. Discussing politics for too long makes me grumpy. Still, according to Dan Leroy, in his National Review article, I am a "playful philosopher". Whatever, I'm just me. But philosopher? I'll take it. In any case, here are my features thus far: General Commentary and Pontification (Politics, Culture, Race, and Theocracy): The majority of this site. (Now Defunct Features): CrazyWorld. Lastly, let's talk names. Inspired by Jeff at Backcountry Conservative, who recently ranted on the constant mis-spelling of his blog title, and mis-appropriation of his name, I'm going to make this brief. My entire life, people have spelled my name wrong. But on the internet, there's no excuse for misspelling. Highlight, copy, cut and paste. You can call me Ambra, *Ambra Nykol, or Nykola (since it is the name of the site), but for crying out loud, not Amber Nychols! I'm not generally this sidity, but really folks, it's phonetic! *proper pronunciation Ambra: "Am-bruh" Nykol: "Nee-coal" or "Nicole" Nykola: "Nee-coal-uh" or "Nicola" (think cough drops) 
Ah, Listmania. I have a bad case of that at my spot, but my medication helps me moderate it. Keep up the great work! I confess and ask your forgiveness. I know I have referred to you as "Amber" at least once on my blog. I fixed it as soon as I saw it, but the offense still stands. Please do not smite me oh ebon goddess! Jeff, no offense taken. My name gets misspelled DAILY. My own mother calls me "Amelia" (my sister) from time to time. And Bijan, I caught those sports names on your site. You are truly in your element. My mother calls me Jon (my brother's name). She even called me the dog's name once. I had teachers in high school who had to call me by my last name. My grandmother is the same way, she basically cycles through her daughter's names until she find the one she wants and sticks with it. Trust me having a boring name doesn't help. Aw man, you missed your chance! { Comments are now closed for this entry. } |
