There's that silly piece I put on the board several months ago called "Alvin, King of the Elves", about the etymological relatedness of the names Elvis, Elvin (Bishop), and Alvin... ;-)

Had not thought of the Alvin <-> Elvis name connection before, but it sure sounds possible. Same for Cal -> Calvin -> Alvin. More to come, and I love every minute of it!

Hey, I was just taking a little nap! I will speak up when we get there!

Good sport, bobl! Reg oughtta give you a Hamlet-like soliloquy at some point soon! "To Lee, or not to Lee, that is the question..." quoth GB... :-)

Laurie, Reg is pretty clever as he picked up on the fact that I am a pretty quiet and reserved kind of guy. I have been coming to this site for over 10 years on a regular basis, but don't chime in very often.

Yes, I say, Reg is indeedy-deed a most clever chappie. Oops, there I go again with the banter from old P.G. Wodehouse books, heh heh. Something about the name "Reginald Sapworthy"...makes me think of Catsmeat Potter-Pirbright, Barmy Fotheringay-Phipps, Gussie Fink-Nottle, and that lot, don't you know. Tee hee hee... harrumph. Well, bobl, it's good talkin' with ya. :-) May we assume your name is "Bob L."? Don't want to keep thinking of you as "bobble" if that's not correct. ;-)

You would appear to be an introvert, Bob. And do you play lead guitar - and frequently fall out with your bandmates - as well?

All: Ha, hee, ho!!etc. :-)

Yes, my name is Bob and my last name starts with the letter L (Langley). And yes I am an introvert, but am not a lead guitar player, only wish I was. I have dabbled with singing and harmonica playing years ago as well as trying my hand at writing lyrics, but I am only at the talent level of doing those things as a hobby and not in public! Like I said before, I am a quiet guy and will admit to a phobia when it comes to public speaking in front of a large group of strangers, but if the bus stops at a pub and I have a few pints...good luck shutting me up!
