For several years Kellie has been calling me Yosh. It goes back to when I worked at Kit Kat and Felipe would pronounce Josh as Yosh. Somehow it stuck, despite Kel's lack of a Spanish accent.
The other day, while researching the nicknames President Bush has given out, I found out that the current White House chief of staff is named Josh Bolten. And Bush's nickname for him? You guessed it, Yosh. "And he's Jewish too," I told Kel.
For the rest of the day I kept breaking out my bad Dubya impression. "Yosh," I'd say, squinting and gesturing like the president, "tell me about this new healthcare deal. I don't get it. Help me out here, Yosh."
Kel also has me programmed in her phone as Hot Stuff. I can only hope that Bush hasn't programmed his Yosh in his phone likewise.
