My European Cousins

This is too funny. A check of my Bloglines account showed a new entry for Bejata, but to my surprise, it wasn’t mine. There’s another blog with the same name. Luckily they aren’t in the U.S. or I might have to sue.

Frankly I don’t even know what country or language that is, I’m guessing somewhere in Scandinavia? If anybody knows, clue a brotha in.

Now, when I started this blog I came up with the name by taking the first two letters from each of my names and even created a meaning behind it:

bejata \bi-zhá-tuh\ n pl bejati \bi-zhá-tie\ bejatum \bi-zhá-tuhm (1960) 1 a : random thoughts, opinions, observations, comments b : a myriad collection of same 2 : creative expression of, and stemming from Bernard James Tarver

But who knows, maybe in another language it actually means something. Or maybe they read my original blog and think it’s a real word. Wouldn’t that be funny?

I'm sure that person can never be like the Real Bejata. LOL Plus, I came up with my domain name the same as you did yours. And all this time I thought I was corny for doing it that way. The unique part of your idea is that you gave yours a meaning. Cool!
