Many years ago I was returning from a visit with my children in Asheville to my home in the Greater Atlanta area. I stopped at a rest area on Interstate 85. I noticed an abandoned yellow rubber ducky underneath one of the picnic tables. I decided to keep it and make it into my mascot for when my children rode in my automobile. I would set it on my dashboard when my children were with me.
I decided it needed a name and decided to call it Alpha Betty. I took the complete alphabet as my template and guideline for its complete name.
ABCDEF evolved into "Alpha Betty Can Dance Every Friday" from which I am using as the title of this blog entry.
GHIJKLMNOPQ evolved into "Good Health Is Just Knowing Larry Makes Nice Onion Pineapple Quiche." My children had for about three years a stepdad named Larry. He was my ex wife's high school sweetheart and her second husband.
RSTUVWXYZ evolved into "Root Specialists Treat Underground Vegetables With Xenophobic Yellow Zits."
I have thought of alternatives to the third name, one being Route Specialists Treat Undocumented Vagrants With Xeroxed Young Zebras.
Anyway I hope even John Doe can use the letters of his name to create something humorous and useful.
