I like being called Qian.

So, today i am reminded, thanks to my office buddy! Joe. Joe. Joe. I love it. Why? Simply cos it brings people closer when you call them something more personal aint it? Well, it does to me. And it sure matters to me who calls me that lar! Not any tom dick or harry of cos. Anyhow. Being called Joe. SIMPLY sounds great to me.

Names. Do they matter?

They do, at least to me. The addressor matters too.
