Maybe he could've considered another name for the business though.

Hurricane Irene wasn't nearly as bad as it could've been. The consensus here in DC seems to be "nowhere near as bad as Isabel" (which hit the Mid-Atlantic in 2003), and many of the New Yorkers who ignored Mayor Bloomberg's orders to evacuate are probably feeling smug. Nonetheless, millions of…
Kevin Drum is amused by a historical comparison:
THEN AND NOW....In 2004, everyone complained that John Kerry was an old-media plodder who didn't react quickly enough to conservative attacks. What a dunce! In 2008, everyone is praising Barack Obama for keeping his composure and not letting…
At dinner with my parents last night, we were talking about the dinners at Sumiyoshi, the ryokan we stayed at in Takayama. I haven't gotten around to uploading those pictures yet, but I dug this one out:
It's not the best picture of Kate, but she does provide a sense of scale... It was a great…
I've lost a lot of sleep this weekend staying up late to watch Syracuse games, so I'm only getting to some of the Friday articles in my RSS feeds now. I don't want to let this utterly worthless column by William Rhoden of the New York Times pass without comment though. It's ostensibly about the…
What of the Liberal BeeJays, a semi-pro baseball team out of Liberal, Kansas, named after baseball pioneer Byron Bancroft Johnshon, who created the American Baseball League out of a struglling minor league circuit in 1893?
Hah, hah, hah. Look, I know what you're thinking, and laugh all you want, but I want you to know that I called these guys to remodel my kitchen. They were prompt, courteous, clean, hard-working, and I was completely satisfied with the oral sex.
Seems this is a theme with mechanical contractors. A large local outfit, fine mechanics all, equipped their workers on a large industrial site with baby blue hardhats with the company name written boldly in two inch high red letters: GAY.
You see a dozen large muscular guys carrying large scary tools and wearing baby blue hardhats boldly declaring their affiliation, if not their actual orientation, pile out a truck you have to see it as a statement. When a man wears something that would be seen as effeminate and could easily be construed as a unmasculine label it acts as a sort of hyper masculine display.
Like the Scotch adage that it takes a hell of a man to wear a skirt.
A man is what he is. It is a state of mind. No matter what he may wear. A much as that may sound like macho posturing it is not anti feminine or homophobic. A man, a human being, is not defined by clothing or the trappings around them. A persons individual humanity is independent of surroundings and labels.
Takes a person who is very firm and comfortable about their own sexuality, and the sexuality of those around him, to name his company BJQueen. He obviously doesn't give a fig about what anyone thinks. A man like that can go far. Probably a hell of a contractor.
