North Korea has invented hangover free booze.

The last one may not be strictly true but the North Koreans are saying it.

You're only giving Dalty an opportunity to be racist.

Are you saying he would suggest that only non-whites would name their daughter Jyssaka? Kind of funny, since the only girl I know who has that name is white.

I am saying he might suggest this. I looked the name up before I made the post to see if it was a real name or a George R. R. Martin creation. I found the name attached to a white person--or, rather, to a person who appeared to me to be someone most would consider white. I don't know her heritage. I don't even know if she's a she--genetically or otherwise. It's possible it's the same white person you know, since the person appears to live in St. Louis. She also appears to be a friend of a mutual friend or two of ours.

Of course, my belief that he might suggest this depends on whether or not the alternative spelling stereotype is a transatlantic stereotype. Is it, Dalty?

Of course, I practically had to drag it out of him, so it barely counts.
