Needing a name for a mailing list
[email protected]
I tried to name a New Mexico Unschooling list "Goof Group." That was the
name of our old unschooling group. But it's taken, by fans of A Goofy Movie.
Fine.
So I started looking to see what's already taken. The other working list (I
had shared with two other locals for feedback) was this:
Wait...
What should I call this list? There are a couple of southern Colorado
(Durango corner) people...
It should be easy to spell, easy to remember, not ambiguous.
NMun?
too short?
enchantingunschooling?
too long?
ZiaUnschool?
learningwithoutcrap?
(no, I guess not)
Any ideas?
Doddlocal?
(but Holly will grow up and I'll be out of it)
Our old group was called "the Goof Group"
goofgroup@yahoogroups?
Can't have goofgroup.
So I came here to sit on my unschooling cyber-couch and put my feet
figuratively up and to think aloud.
I found the following detritus while looking: I have a three year old group
called "NewMexicoHomeschooling with 125 people or so on it and found this
one, newer, and some other oddities

NOT much range.

They listed unschooling as a keyword. Very sad.
And the pagan school... "schudual changes. . . . all who are sincre about .

I guess not teaching my kids to write is okay.
***sigh***
So I need something short yet descriptive, clever, yet easy to spell.
Something non offensive, something maybe catchy, to draw people together, but
to ward off people we don't want to attract and let people know right away we
don't want them to come and advertise the algebra home course they just wrote
last week and that we don't want to hire someone for $350 to come and tell
our group about Charlotte Masons or Charlotte Shriners nor even Charlotte
Rainbow Girls.

Holly says it should be something the kids can say so they can talk about
going there. So the name of the yahoogroup needs to be what the kids will
call what they go to.
Scratch'n'Sniff, Holly just recommended. Then she farted dramatically.
Help!

Ooooh... creepy.
Half my post was lost. It had become a link (not a WORKing link, a lame-o
link) for that magick school and just fell of the earth in bright blue
underlined useless letters.
