WHAT'S IN A NAME?

A short history lesson on a not so short name.

Did you know, that the 20th Century's greatest artist, Pablo Picasso, had a really long name? Read it out loud and click on it too:

Pablo Diego José Santiago Francisco de Paula Juan Nepomuceno Crispín Crispiniano de los Remedios Cipriano de la Santísima Trinidad Ruiz Picasso

Try saying that three times in a row.

WAT
Los Angeles, California, United States
I'm a cool laid-back dude...ya see? Born and raised in these United States with strong Hispanic roots and oh so proud of it! This insignificant little blog attempts to keep my life and all its trappings in written form enhanced by occasional images and audio. Current events, music, film, television, celebrities, politics, religion, history, geography, culture, language, environmental issues, gay themes, terrorism, and other stuff is equally discussed and dismembered. FLUENT IN ENGLISH, SE HABLA ESPAÑOL, ET BEAUCOUP DE FRANÇAIS!
