Not corny at all. And I'd say the chances of finding a baby
Gertrude are 100 times better than a baby
Beulah*. I met a fifteen year old
Gertie once. And the little girl character in the movie "Jersey Girl" is named
Gertie. So finding your white whale might not be so difficult after all. :-)
* The more I say "baby
Beulah" out loud the more I'm falling in love with the name.
