The Anatomy of a Name

I've been wanting to blog for a while now, but for a while now I haven't been able to come up with a good blog name.boo. (yes, that is what was holding me back, well that and actually sitting down to figure it all out) i didnt just want it to be like: "schreiner family blog" it had to be cool, it had to be catchy! my initial thought was to play off the Shriner Circus thing, but that kind of fizzled...i didnt want it to be too dorky, and i was afraid it was going that route, whatever. It could be "nothings finer than being a schreiner" ha! but that was a little hokey for me. No great song lyrics or Bible verses were coming to mind, and i wanted it to be short and to the point...then i remembered something. A while back either I had called my sister, Carolyn's house, they have caller ID and when it came up on the phone it said SCHREINER BRAND (his name was too long for the phone) they were a little puzzled as to what exactly "Schreiner Brand" was. Once they figured it out we had a good laugh and now my brother-in-law, Dave, started calling us "Schreiner Brand", we are of the Brand "Schreiner" and this our clan ;).
