You Get To Name My Camera!

In the wake of this historic election(1), I decided to employ the democratic process…

I like to name my expensive toys. My car was Shar!!ricka.(2) My guitar was Taryn. My amp is Brad. My laptop is Captain Oats. My beard was Captain Ahab–wait, nevermind.

Anyways… I need help choosing a name for my camera, but I decided on a theme.

I want to name it after a female singer. My love for female singer/songwriters is no secret…

The options are:

1) Rachael – Like Yamagata. Just wish me the best and hope I find whatever I’m looking for.

2) Schuyler – As in Fisk (and pronounced SKY-ler). Because I’ve been this way with so many before, but it feels like the first.

3) Jenny – Lewis. Because she’s(3) got the moneymaker.

4) Ingrid – Like Michaelson. Because–as we learned from my last camera–they are so fragile, so breakable, breakable, breakable.

5) Priscilla – As in Ahn. Because in this town, I just wanna shoot ‘em down.

6) Deb – Like Talan of The Weepies. Because I try to be honest, try to be kind, try to leave when I know that it’s time.

Thanks for voting.

Footnotes:
  1. For the record, I think both “in the wake” and “this historic election” are the most cliched phrases in the history of instant news and mass broadcasting. [↩]
  2. Pronounced Shar-[cluck] [cluck]-reeka [↩]
  3. The camera. Not Jenny. Well, Jenny too… but in that instance I meant the camera. [↩]
