You did perfectly well with your renames, Linmag
. When it comes to self-esteem, it is an essential commodity for felines, as you well know. That was very thoughtful of you. Dopey is just unbearable. But if mining a Lady must go, coming up with a Diamond is much preferred to coal. Does daughter sparkle?
Kush ~ When you watch Clockwork Orange, keep in mind how long ago it was made, and the "futuristic" elements, along with the psychological aspects within the film. I also really liked the complexity of the film as a whole. Each time I'd watch it, there'd be entire segments that I'd "forgotten." A particular, classical piece of Beethoven's is forever linked for me. You'll know it when you see/hear it.
Dylan has a movie? Is he in it, or did he produce it?
Nana sounds very interesting. If the sound on my computer worked, I'd check her out. Her name sounds familiar, but I have no idea why. Was any of her music ever used in films that may have shown over here. Or was a particular song ever popular here in any way? I went to the link you provided, Kush. I could only conclude she and Paula must be sisters, their photos from earlier times looking so similar, a tiny red x in a white box. However, I did glance through the interview [no time to read it all] and some of her commentary fits well with why she and Leonard, and she and Dylan, have become friends. Likewise, with why she would be a Goodwill Ambassador.

True, Paula. I acquired a cat years ago. His owner had given him the name Lucifer. His behaviour seemed remarkably similar. I decided renaming was in his and my best interest, so I scoured the Bible until I found a name that seemed both appropriate conceptually and pleasant in sound, as well as fitting for him. I settled on Joshua. His behaviour began to change virtually immediately for the better. I had already ceased his previous-owner's tactic of throwing him against a wall, so I'm certain the name change was most relevant. There is much in a name. The personality and name often tend to mirror each other.
