Okay a bit about my roots.  I am the seventh kiddo of the same two parents.  My father is Billy Ray and mother is Alma Jean.  The oldest is Billy Ray Jr. but he goes by Willay.  My siters came next and are Carol June, Cathy Jean, and Sharon Kay.  Wait of 10 years or so and bam here comes accident number 2, oldest brother was number 1.  They named him Jerry Don followed by a playmate named Joe Bob.  THen in 3rd place was me the youngest Jimmy Dale.  Now my parents are simple people and named us what we were to be called not the more professional names of William Ray, Katherine Jean, Jeremiah Don, Joseph Robert, James Dale.  Needless to say we come from the country and my father has never worn a white collar.

               I used to get mad when someone would call me James or ask if my real name was JAmes when filling out applications and official paperwork.  I am usually good with names but yesterday I goofed and called Jeremiah, Gerald in one of my threads.  I have already edited it but wanted to let people know where it all started.

               Jesus in my high school spanish class the teacher called me Diego and said that was the closest thing to Jimmy she could come up with because I would not allow Jaime.  Now Jaimito would have been good.

               It has to be the taper madness that causes us all to disclose things like this and call people by th wrong name and such things.
