OB

So, I have a friend. (sounds bad right?)

His name is Obi.

Now, whilst standing between the posts in goal at football tryouts earlier today; My mind drifts - that could explain the 8 goals... - to begin to wonder about the spelling. I've got nothing against this name at all, it's just a thought...

Why not spell in Ob, and I hear you cry out the answer, because that would be a ridiculous name, something worthy of the stone ages. But I have the solution. Capital letters!!!

OB make you pronounce each letter as if it were its own. So Obi, become OB.

That would save - if my calculations are correct - one ink cartridge worth of writing every 5 years to drop the I for him. So i think it's worth it.
