16 names and counting everyone! Keep em coming.

I'd send you another, but I'm already maxed out at one.

Just kidding, don't have another. I've already submitted my best work, lol.

But for others that have not sent in a name to Tela rockjunquie , what are you waiting for?? Get to it! The more the merrier. And don't forget about the lovely prize rock.

For those unaware of the contest, here is a link back to the beginning of the thread, so you know what it is all about, and the rules.

What's in a name?

A rose by any other name would smell the same.

"Maggot Agate"? has a certain ring appealing to a few, appalling to most.

A youth in our area with inherited wealth opened a new restaurant with what he thought was a fun name.

The Squat and Gobble

All his money couldn't keep it alive. It closed in 5 months.

Squat and Gobble has been operating in San Francisco for over 25 years. It has three locations in The City, and others elsewhere.

1dave : Dave, Great analysis on the fly's and such but the cookers over at The Big Crazy's Pastry Shop are disinfecting the area as we speak and I have it on firm authority from the Big Crazy himself, under no circumstances are they allowing any Indonesian Palm Root Rough near their Kitchens until RTH members agree to an official and proper name. Cheers, johnw
