Godfather
SD and VS made a baby on Saturday. They must be crazy. They've elected me to be the Christian Godparent of an ethnically Hindu kid. Huh? As undoubtedly flattering as it is, disconcertment remains my primary feeling towards this unvoluntary position. Many reasons were given, but VS managed to distill them to 7:

The ACTUAL reasons for asking you:

1. You are interesting.

2. You can climb trees, ledges, rocks, etc, therefore probably more fun than her own parents.

3. You will be able to impart some knowledge on finance since both her parents are poor.

4. If anything happens to both of us, you're the only one we trust that would provide financial support to our daughter without being calculating and mean.

5. You put promises before yourself.

6. Even though you act like a nut most of the time, you're actually quite responsible.

7. Since you are very likely to remain single, she may be in line to inherit the D'Souza estate.
