So there's this little cat I've been taking care of since my little one died. He was a stray that came up half past dead and I couldn't just let him starve. So I'm fixing him up and hopefully I can find a good home for him soon.
The trouble is his name. I decided to name him "Earl Jones", which just sounds like the coolest cat name to me. It's cool yet sassy with just a dash of southern twang to it. Like an old country singer with bad hair.
The only problem is, the cat is black and so certain people I know think I named him after James earl Jones. Oh my god. For real?
Must everything in this world boil down to politics? If I wanted to name him after the actor, I'd be calling him James Earl, not Earl Jones. And I usually just call him Earl.
