when i was a wee melinda, i asked my parents why and how they chose the name melinda for their first born child. my mom replied, "your dad liked the name melinda - you were named after a neil diamond song." i never really thought much about this until many years later when i heard the song solitary man and realized that my parents named me after a whore. not just any whore, a whore that cheated on neil diamond and ripped his heart to shreds. in the song solitary man, neil ends up catching his lover, melinda, fucking another man named jim. neil gives up on life and love and decides that being a solitary man is not so bad after all - you don't have to deal with all the games that the bitches and hoes play.
