And Kim, I really am sorry I got your gender wrong. That was my fault and I apologize. I hope there are no hard feelings. I like you and I hope to keep dealing with you in the future. You seem like a great guy.

Stop apologizing Jeff. You'd given us our toy for the day.

I know a couple named Kim and Kelly. I can NEVER get their names straight when talking about them. And I've known them for thirty-five years. Their daughter thinks she's part of our family. Kim and Kelly.

Judah P Benjamin was a former Senator. Oh wait! Politics! Always an exception Judah.

I have the good fortune for living fairly close to Kim and have meet him several times at local shows.

He is a good guy in person too.

This also reminds me! A well-known formula 1 car driver is named Kimi Raikkonen.

I don't have a hard time with Judah. One of my favorite TV shows, if not my favorite of all time is Weeds, and if you are not familiar with it, the star of the show Nancy Botwin was married to Judah, who died of a sudden heart attack shortly before the action of the show began, so there's a lot of talk of Judah, and I'm perfectly comfortable with that name. And yes, nobody is named Judas (except that one senator, but he's a sucka, so forget him). Judah is where it's at for sure.

and Kim, if you're reading this, I just want to let you know that I love you and I love your plants (my plants now). I would recommend you to anyone. If you are interested in unusual color forms of Adenium obesum, Kim is your guy. Order from him. You can get three seedlings about four inches tall for 25 bucks, which seems like a heck of a deal to me. In short, Kim is the bomb digg, and you should buy plants from him.

I just spent 150 dollars on that damn Stanhopea, so it will be a while before I buy any more plants, but when I do, Kim's offerings are the first ones I will check on.

Finally got around to reading this thread - Thanks All.

There have been a few male Kims in the US. The Miami Dolphins had a player named Kim Bokamper (or something like that). And finally a funny anecdote:

Years ago I was a serious bridge player, going to tournaments all over the country. In one instance I went to a tournament in MA without my regular partner. At the partnership desk, they paired me with a player from TX; his name was Kim Carpenter.

All you people need to watch Hockey. Scandinavian players make up a big part of this great sport and such names are familiar. And kudos to Kim and Deep Cut OS of which he is a member.
