Tunisian Fertility...

Word comes from Tunisia that an unidentified woman there, after fertility treatments, is carrying 12 fetuses, and is "feeling fine".

Of course, we wish mom a successful pregnancy, and that all twelve babies are born healthy and active.

Last time we did this, we had Octo Mom. So- what do we call this one?

The Greek prefix for 12 is "dodeca-", in Latin it is "duodec".

DodecaMom? DuoDecaDen?

How about Noah's Effen Ark? Airplane Hangar Mom?

Egg Carton Mom? Joelle 12-pack?

It's not a womb, it's a dormitory! What do we call THAT? I mean, gatling gun is the first thing that comes to mind, but even THEY only had six barrels...

Tunisia is 98% Muslim, but there is a significant Catholic presence in that remaining 2%- with that many kids, maybe she's Catholic. The 12 Apostles provide a potential name database, but girls are a bit scarce.

Simon, Simon Peter, Thomas, Thaddaeus, Matthew, Judas Iskariot, John, Bartholomew, Philip, Andrew, and 2 guys named James.

We now know that Mary was Jesus' wife, so that's a good name for a girl. Judith Iskariot would work. Simone. Andi. Thomasina.

My friends who live across the street are Catholic, and all their girls are named Mary. You could do it alphabetically. Mary Ann, Mary Beatrice, Mary Catherine, Mary Dionne, etc.

We know Muhammed had 13 wives, so there are some girl names to be had there- and we now know why "13" is forevermore known as an unlucky number.

Both Football and Futbol teams have 11 players on the field. Baseball has 10 on each side in a game, at least in the American League.

The best part of this for me: HOCKEY! Six players per team...

The Canadians are so damn proud of strapping on the skates when their kids are just wee lads.

The Tunisians can beat THAT! Intra-Uterine games, begin! But, beware the Zamboni...
