I like green a lot too, but blue seemed the more appropriate emphasis color.

Funny you should ask about Roy Rogers -- as far as I know, I'm not related to the Roy Rogers. But Roy used to be a common name in my family, and my father, Jim, who was born in 1940, was due to be named Roy. Fortunately for my dad, Grandma Rogers put her foot down and insisted on waiting for the next boy in hopes that the movie star Roy Rogers faded away. He didn't, the next boys were named Joel, William, and David, and the name Roy has died out in my family.
