A few weeks ago I made a shirt for my son with a frog on it and the caption, ‘I’m a frog.’

It started me thinking about something my dad told me when I was young about a Texas governor whose last name was Hogg and how he had two daughters named Ima and Ura.

Ima Hogg and Ura Hogg.

I did look this up and Ima was a real person, but Ura did not exist. Ima was the daughter of James Stephen Hogg who was the governor of Texas from 1890 to 1894. She had three brothers and no sisters. She was also a very remarkable woman and I encourage any one to read about Miss Ima.

Then I started to think about how funny it would be to put random things on shirts with ‘I’m,’ like that is your name and wear it out to see if someone you meet is like, ‘hey that’s my name.’

I was thinking things like, ‘I’m Hair Brush Jones,’ or ‘I’m Coffee Pot Walker.’

I’m probably the only one that thinks this is funny.

That’s all I have today. Everyone enjoy your Saturday.
