I'm the Host, have you met me? I never shut up.




Yeah, more from the files of "I suck with names":
I know intellectually that Whedon's first names is Joss. I always spell it that way. But no matter how much I practice, I always pronounce it "Josh." I have this friend that is always correcting me on it. I guess it's just that I don't know any Josses personally, so I've never had to say it before. I guess it's not that important. It's not as if I'll ever meet him anyway...

Actually, his real name is Josh. Joss was a nickname he picked up in college. It's Chinese for "luck."

Actually, I think it's Joseph. According to JossWhedon.net, his parents call him Joe.
