Black Aggie

There is a legend about Druid Ridge Cemetery in Baltimore, Maryland. It is locally well-known for it being the former home of a statue known as Black Aggie.
In the early part of the century, there was a woman named Aggie, who was a nurse working at a hospital. She was congenial and well-liked, but it seemed that patients under her care always seemed to die. Superstition grew, and she was put to death, which turned out to be a mistake when she was discovered innocent the very next day. A communal feeling of guilt spread, so a statue was put in Druid Ridge Cemetery in her honor. This became the second mistake, when strange occurrences started happening.
Legend has it that if you stand before it at the stroke of midnight, you will be struck blind by the statue's red glowing eyes. People were even found dead in front of it, including a pledge from a local fraternity.
Another rumor is that pregnant women who walked in the figure's shadow (where oddly, the grass never grew) would suffer miscarriages. People would gather at the graveyard at night, which became a frequent problem.
All of this finally came to a climax one morning when the cemetery employees walked into work only to find Black Aggie with one of her arms sawed off. Upon investigating this, the arm of the statue and a saw were found in the backseat of a worker's car. The man was brought to trial, and he claimed Black Aggie cut off one of her arms and had given it to him in a fit of grief. Some people believed the ironic story, but it wasn't enough for the court. He was found guilty.
Eventually the statue was removed from Druid Ridge Cemetery, and was donated to a Baltimore museum. It was never displayed however, and resided in the basement. Occasionally, people still congregate at the cemetery in pursuit of truth in the legend, but it is no longer the location of fraternity stunts.....

The Name Game

"The Name Game" can also refer to any of several variations on a word game also known in the United States as "States", in Croatia as "Kaladont", in Russia as "Goroda", and in Japan as "Shiritori", in which the players in turn name words in a given category beginning with the final letter of the previous word. For example, a game in which the category was "states of the United States of America" might proceed: Arkansas, South Dakota, Alaska... A game in which the category was "modern musical genres" might proceed: Reggaeton, new age, electronica, alt-rock...
"The Name Game" can also refer to an ongoing game in which one person calls out the name of their victim and then turns away. The victim loses if they look to see who it is. [1]. The initiator usually calls out the name in a demanding way, such as "Excuse me, Joe!". Some play that the initiator loses if they are quickly discovered. In a variant, the initiator follows with "sucks!" when the victim looks.
The Name Game, or "The Banana Song", is a children's singalong rhyming game that creates variations on a person's name. It was written by singer Shirley Ellis with Lincoln Chase, and Ellis' recording, produced by Charles Calello, was released in late 1964 (see 1964 in music) as "The Name Game." That record went to number 3 on the Billboard Hot 100, and number 4 on the magazine's R&B charts in 1965. The record was re-released in 1966 and again in 1973. While Ellis' stock in trade was novelty hits, she was not a one-hit wonder. A serious R&B singer for 10 years before that hit, Ellis also charted with "The Clapping Song (Clap Pat Clap Slap)" (#8 pop and #16 R&B), and "The Nitty Gritty" (#8 on the Hot 100 and #4 on the Cash Box R&B chart). Ellis performed "The Name Game" on major television programs of the day, including Hullabaloo, American Bandstand, and Merv Griffin.
"The Name Game" has been recorded by dozens of recording artists in the years since, notably Laura Branigan, whose version produced by Jeff Lorber, appearing on her 1987 album Touch, features a classroom of third-grade schoolchildren singing along to the tongue-twisting game. The Brazilian singer Xuxa recorded a song using the same play and same sample in the song "Jogo da Rima". Often covered by relative unknowns on collections of songs for children, other cover versions have been recorded by artists as diverse (and campy) as Dean Ford and the Gaylords (1965), Divine (1980), and Soupy Sales (2002). In 1982, Stacy Lattisaw took her "rap" recording of "Attack of the Name Game" to #79 on the Hot 100. In 1993, this song was used on television as an advertisement for Little Caesar's Pizza.
Ellis told Melody Maker magazine that the song was based on a game she played as a child.

Heart

Dr. Brewski looked at the name on the file and then at the ugly, overweightman. there was no mistake. it was him. Sullivan(the patient) did not recognized him. that´s how il is, thought Dr.Brewski, you ruin someone´s life, and then you forget everything about then. Dr. brewski looked at the patient lying on the operating table, his chest already opened the heart beating.

" if i make just one small mistake, i can kill sullivan and nobody will ever know. All doctors make mistake. Dr. Brewski was married with two children, so why should he care. Sullivan broke his heart, but if Dr. Brewski wanted to, he could save Sulliva´s heart now...
