Happy Birthday Omaha Steve

Last edited Fri Jan 23, 2015, 08:55 PM - Edit history (1)


Today I'm 58. Jr., our youngest daughter, and I all have birthdays in a weeks time. BIG week.

So what to get for a guy with health issues like mine? Something that makes me smile. I saw it on e-bay. Even shipped it was under $10.

We have a few pewter dragons scattered around the house. Not all dragons are evil, have wings, etc. Please help me pick out a name for my new little fellow.

OS

I'll be 59 myself in a couple of weeks. If I live so long.



You could name your new pal Moe, Larry, or Curley.

Your dragon reminds me of the photo I just saw on HuffPo of the 102 year old lady adopting a shelter cat. Maybe you should name the dragon Iona.

You're one of my favorite DUers. Hope your day and your week is exactly what you want and need.

Not sure what to name the little dragon. LSD, maybe? Little Sleeping Dragon. He's a cutie!

it should start with "Omaha". So, from some of the previous posts...

You could name him

Omaha Ohm

Omaha LSD (My personal favorite)

Omaha Cedric

etc.

Have a great day!

I would call the dragon Thelonius for a male or Lyrija (lee-ree-yah) for a girl.

I think the teddy bear looks like a Buster and the dragon might be a Fitz.

Hope it's as blissful as that little dragon looks!

I'd name her Melinda, which means "sweet serpent" by some translations...she does look sweet, and dragons are related to serpents in mythology.
