On first glance, it could be the ultimate Valentine's Day card -- a gigantic billboard that towers over New York's Times Square, featuring a happy couple with the text: "You are my soulmate forever, Charles & YaVaughnie."
But as every scorned lover knows, looks can be deceiving. This billboard -- which also has gone up in Atlanta and San Francisco -- is the ultimate act of revenge -- a very public retaliation by a dumped mistress aimed at a very wealthy, and married, businessman who is an adviser to President Obama.
YaVaughnie Wilkins posted the signs after she learned that her lover, Charles E. Phillips — president and director of the tech conglomerate Oracle Corporation and a member of Obama's Economic Recovery Advisory Board — had reconciled with his wife, the New York Post reported.
The billboards -- there are three in New York and one apiece in Atlanta and San Francisco, where Phillips lives -- may have cost Wilkins up to $250,000, at an estimated $50,000 each.

That’s hard not to do. In my experience, most women are crazy.
A friend was a teacher in Philadelphia and had a student named “Female” (pronounced “feh - ma - lee”, with the accent on the second syllable). Our friend asked the mother where she came up with the name and the mother replied that she didn’t - - it was the name already on the birth certificate.

Maybe that was the case back in the day, but after hundreds of years of change in the English language, some names should not be used. Would you name your boy Gaylord or Gayther today?

True story from a woman I know who used to be a nurse in Detroit. “Female”, pronounced Fuh MA Lay, was a popular name in some inner city delivery rooms (until the mothers were talked out of it by the nurses). This used to come from the fact that the babies would be placed in a nursery, with either ‘male’ or ‘female’ on the end of the cradle facing the observation window. Some mothers thought the hospital assigned the name. They stopped putting ‘male’ and ‘female’ at the end of the cribs in the nursery.
One mother named one male twin ‘LeMONjello’ and the other ‘ORANjello’ - Lemon Jello and Orange Jello. True stories told with a straight face and a twinge of sadness in her voice at the time. I thought she was joking, and she was not.
Yes, yes, we know—every child born since 1400 should have been named John or Elizabeth, for the sake of holy Western tradition.
Honestly, you don’t have to live with them, so who cares what people name their children?
