Off: That's prophetic

[Carl Edlund Anderson]

Here in Colombia, it's not a particularly funny name.  It's not a  
traditional name (like the ubiquitous "Maria"), but it's become an  
increasingly popular one in recent years.  (I've run into people with  
the name in Europe and even Asia as well.)  So if she becomes a  
violent criminal, we'll probably have to blame something else! ;)

Cheers,
Carl
