Well, here's what i remember from it:

-was about a boy in middle school.
-he had a crush on his neighbor who used to sunbath topless, and all the boys would try to get her attention so that she would stand up and expose her self. they even attempted to throw fire crackers beneath her lounge chair, but she didn't budge.
-the main character has a fight with the antagonist at the end and he ends up punching his hand through a screen door.
-in the very end of the book, the main character realizes loses a bet they made and has to kiss/hook up with his really fat girl. but it just so happened that she had returned from fat camp and looked gorgeous.

that's all i can remember. driving me crazy cuz i really liked the book and it had a huge influence on my pre-teen years. would love to re-read it now at 20.

I read the book two years ago or so, but I can't remember that specific reason that Langdon wears a Mickey Mouse wristwatch (and I can't go and read it because I lent the book to a friend.) There's something about Walt Disney that is the reason he wears it isn't there? In the book was Walt Disney a member of the Priory of Sion or something? I can't remember and it's irritating me.

In a story I am writing, a main character is from Belfast. I need to inquire about certain aspects to make sure I didn't make an unrealistic choice of names

1- I s the family name O’Hara common, or at least could be found in Belfast? If not could you suggest more "Belfastian" family names?

2- Which of the following female names is impossible for an Irish girl?
-Fairy
-Megan
-Bridgette
-Victoria
Do you suggest better names? keeping in mind the character comes from a very religious family.

3- Do you suggest certain traditions or traits or character flavors or biases or tastes or dialect aspects .etc..which i could give to my character to make her sound more like a Belfastian girl?

Thank you.

I would imagine he would have to face teasing from peers (unfortunately), etc. This sounds like a stupid question, but I'm curious to hear from male dancers why they decided to persue ballet.
