Re: My Spectrum
I don't. I never would have wanted to see my mom as a maroon-colored three dimensional square with black triangular spikes OH MY GOD.There are only two names that I associate with colors without any concrete reason for doing so. Susan is yellow and David is brown. David is very very brown, which may be a reason I've never been able to like it. I don't know why those two names are those colors to me. The few others that I associate with colors, I can see there's a reason for it---Rose is red because of roses, Sylvia is silver because of the first syllable, Sally is yellow because I immediately think of the "Dick, Jane, and Sally" books that were used in my elementary school, in which Sally was the little sister with curly blonde hair. Their cat's name was Puff.Even with these, it's pretty basic. Yellow, brown, red. There's no mauve or raspberry or lime green.Come to think of it, "Dick, Jane, and Sally" is proof right there that Dick was usable at least through the 1950s.
