nomen clatureforgive me for getting into a fit of contrived nostalgia.
i'm not sure if it was marge, but i remember having this ubergeeky discussion about names. i believe that one lives up to one's name. hearing it everyday, over and over, said with delight, love, hatred, urgency and the complete range of emtions must have an effect on the person, right.
well, in english, my name would translate to strong man, follower of christ, from the castle of mercy. i would think that i alone hold the prestige to being this. let me show you how wrong i am.
i present to you the carl-roll, or a partial list of those whom i share my name with from all over the world. (i'm sure there're more in mars.)

meet Carl Clemente, M.D.
all i know is that he's a doctor in europe and the rest of the stuff written about him is in a foreign langauge. (i suspect it to be german. incidentally, my parents tell me that i was made there. i know: ew)
there is another carl clemente existing in the www. he is a board memeber in some american provicial town. there are no pictures of him available.

Department of Psychology
University of Maryland, Baltimore County. I cannot for the life of me paraphrase his write up so i decided to paste it as it is.
Carlo DiClemente received his M.A. in Psychology at the New School for Social Research and his Doctorate in Psychology at the University of Rhode Island.
Dr. DiClemente is the co-developer of the Transtheoretical Model of behavior change with Dr. James Prochaska. Dr. DiClemente is the author of numerous scientific articles and book chapters on motivation and behavior change and the application of this model to a variety of problem behaviors. Dr. DiClemente is a co-author of a self-help book based on this model of change, Changing for Good and several professional books, The Transtheoretical Model, Substance Abuse Treatment and the Stages of Change, and Group Treatment for Substance Abuse: A Stages of Change Therapy Manual. He has recently completed a new book, Addiction and Change: How Addictions Develop and Addicted People Recover published by Guilford Press. His current projects include brief interventions for problem drinking in medical settings, adolescent and adult dietary change and health risk reduction, and addiction prevention and treatment.
For the past 25 years he has conducted funded research in health and addictive behaviors. He has directed an outpatient alcoholism treatment program and serves as a consultant to private and public treatment and prevention programs. He was recently given the 2002 Distinguished Contribution to Scientific Psychology award by the Maryland Psychological Association and named to receive the Innovators Combating Substance Abuse award by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. He is the current president of the Division on Addictions (50) in the American Psychological Association.
besides him, there is also this other carlo clemente, an italian writer.
and now, homecourt.

this is carlo clemente, 24 years old and he is in a relationship. he is also from quezon city.

on the other hand, this is carlo clemente, 16 years old studying at la salle greenhills. incidentally, he says "i'm a guy who likes hanging out,vain,fun to be with but sometimes annoying." don't i have to die first before being reincarnated?

and yet another 24 year old carlo clemente, studying at mapua. besides his penchant for cars, the only thing he has to say about himself is that he's simple.

and this, my friends is carl clemente from mandaluyong city. he says he's 19 years old. i'm suspecting that he's also a fictionist.
there are mooooore from where those came from but i disregarded those without pictures. but noteworthy is this guy: i found the person in friendster who beat all of us to "carloclemente@yahoo.com." he's 24 years old, stilla college student abnd he loves playing basketball. he says he's "simple / suplado."
