kreiola

the beginning. the place to start, right? well, i did want to blog some time ago. problem was that i'd been feeling a little overwhelmed. but i do love a healthy challenge. penelope trunk's wapo discussion (read the transcript yesterday) is the reason i'm here now. write something.

need a title. here's the end of an lengthy thought process:
  • cape verdean: crioulu -> crioula - taken
  • i like 'k': crioula -> krioula, kreola - taken
  • kreeola: eeeeeeee.
  • kreiola: looks good. could be pronounced 'crayola'. a name i hope no mother bestows on their child.
  • kreiola: available! i'll take it.
yeah.
