blog title explanation

so i realized that i should probably explain the title of my blog. well, when i decided to do a blog i didn't have a definite theme in mind, so i couldn't come up with some witty title based on the theme i was going to use. and doing something as boring "katie's blog" made me wanna vomit. so since i love all things weird, silly, ridiculous, and nonsensical, i decided that my blog title should show that. the name Squeegee Beckinheim is a fake name i've used for some time. i actually stole it from Gilmore Girls. there's this one scene where they are going through all of their catalogs and lorelai is talking about how she just wanted to see if they would really send catalogs to someone named something ridiculous like Squeegee Beckinheim. there were other silly names, but that was the best. although, Tookie Clothespin is pretty good too. and then the lion tamer thing. originally i wanted to write professional killer instead, but then i got all paranoid about the idea of being watched by the government for using that as my blog title so i decided against it. even though i love a good Gross Point Blank reference. so then i remembered a couple halloweens ago i went as a lion tamer and it was totally awesome and my friends created a new drink for me that night which we called the lion tamer from then on. thus the creation of Squeegee Beckinheim: Professional Lion Tamer. hope that cleared things up.
