Jimbo Considers Name Change
J
imbo has been considering altering his name to be compatible with modern technology. He is thinking about changing his name so that when he performs a spell check on documents containing his name, his time will not be wasted when the spell check does not recognize his name. "If I do change my name," he said, "it�ll be either �Jumbo� or �Jamb.�"Such a name change could be troublesome for the media. For instance the name The Jumbo News would imply a large publication, and the writer of The Jimbo News does not want to expand it. Also, The Jamb News would be a pretty dull newspaper (jamb being "a side post of a doorway, window frame, fireplace, etc.").
