Rename Kalahari before it gets here

Rename Kalahari before it gets here

Kalahari is a done deal. Let's stop writing negative notes to the editor about it. It is going to happen. The officials in Fredericksburg want Kalahari.

Kalahari is a dumb name. Can we rename it? Since it is coming, can we write in name changes before it gets here?

What a bunch of bitter racists (posted by realitystory , Jan. 17, 2008 7:17 pm)   
That's right, you haters are nothing but low-rent racists, who are implying that the non-white people of Bragg Hill or immigrants who aren't white anglo-saxon protestants are all illegal, dirty or in need of a shower. Take your white supremacy and move to Arkansas, it's full of ignorant white Wal-Mart shopping morons like you people.

I like Bragg Hill Beach-has a nice ring to it. (posted by travelin_bone , Jan. 17, 2008 12:32 pm)   
Or Kalahari Parque del Agua. There will be hoodlums hanging out in packs outside and fights in the parking lot. Kalahari is suitable though. According to Wikipedia it's name is derived from a tribal word meaning "a waterless place." Just like home!

What about?.. (posted by gu1239 , Jan. 17, 2008 11:17 am)   
Bragg Hill Beach. It's not too far off. Any bets on how long before some violence ensues after they open their doors?

Why Not, "Illegal Alien Magnet"? (posted by MrZorro , Jan. 17, 2008 9:20 am)   
After all, it will employ over 800, mostly illegals. Other titles might be, "Kalahogwash", or "Help Me, Tomzak", a parody of the Beach Boys' , "Help Me, Rhonda".

New name (posted by blowinsmoke , Jan. 17, 2008 8:56 am)   
Fredericksburg Area Community Washtub. Single family households with 8 or more free on Friday Nights!
