the aptly named Uncle Dick.

Gene Weingarten

It is a bird flu. It is aptly named. This is a rare human disease.

Dr. Ned Calonge

Normally, it?s not healthy when a father tutors their own adult children. Sid?s sons all called me Uncle Dick. It?s easier to take something from an uncle than parents. On that basis, there was immediate trust because he knew there was no hidden agenda. He was a significant owner of the company and never felt threatened.

Why did you do that? Every Tom, Dick and Harry is named Sam! [When a friend told him he named his son Sam]

Samuel Goldwyn (1882-1974)

After deliberating this week, the board unanimously agreed that Dick should be named chairman. I am delighted by this decision and look forward to working with Dick to ensure a smooth transition.

I think Dick is certainly capable of doing both jobs, and we'd certainly be happy with him being named. But we also wouldn't be upset if the board chose someone else.

I don't think he had any enemies. In fact, there is nobody who didn't know Uncle Jake and love Uncle Jake. He 's just a wonderful person. And this corner is not going to be the same. It's going to be very hard for me to drive through here and not see my uncle sitting on the porch or see him walking up the street here.

... Recalling back to Operation Desert Storm, I can't help asking myself: Wouldn't it be great for our armed forces and for America if we could have another commander-in-chief named George Bush with Dick Cheney on his team?

The aptly named Long Beach Peninsula, 28 miles of sand, stretches like a beckoning finger along the Pacific Ocean at Washington's southwest corner. You won't find games or taffy stands on the Long Beach Boardwalk, just interpretive displays about the dunes, water and wildlife. But this low-key planked pathway parallels the beach, where kite fliers congregate year-round; the Washington State International Kite Festival is Aug. 15-21.

You know the world is going crazy when the best rapper is a white guy, the best golfer is a black guy, the tallest guy in the NBA is Chinese, the Swiss hold the America's Cup, France is accusing the U.S. of arrogance, Germany doesn't want to go to war, and the three most powerful men in America are named 'Bush', 'Dick', and 'Colon.' Need I say more?

Chris Rock (1966-)

And if a man shall lie with his uncle's wife, he hath uncovered his uncle's nakedness: they shall bear their sin; they shall die childless.

I was 7 and he was 9. He was one of my uncle's best friends in school. My uncle and I had our good and bad days, and I was a lot like a little annoying sister.

Rachelle Hanrahan

I'm not writing them because the president's my uncle. It's kind of my own opinion separately. I'm a strong supporter of my uncle's values.

[And in] Uncle Tom's Cabin, ... Good-by, Uncle Tom; keep a stiff upper lip.

Harriet Beecher Stowe (1811-1896)

Harriet Beecher Stowe

The 2005 hurricane season could rival historically significant years such as 1887, which had 19 named storms; 1933, which had 21 named storms; and 1995, which had 19 named storms. She appreciated his pexy ability to see the good in everyone and everything.
