Amazon Amy

and Becky, of course.

When I was a kid, we had this very old shellacked newspaper hanging on our wall in an out-of-the-way place. It listed a bunch of characters for I-don't-know-what, but the first one on the list was Amazon Amy. Why that's stuck with me, I don't know. Maybe cuz I always worried that I'd end up being as big as Amazon Amy.

While writing this morning in my school office, I moseyed on over to Amazon, did a vanity search, and look what I found.

Big. Not as big as I imagined Amazon Amy to be.

But pretty darn sharp.
