Mnemonic

When you're having a date this evening with a girl you've anonymously met online it'd be the best to open your mouth and tell her your name before the sun sets and you'll go to your apartment to do the deed. Otherwise it'll be really awkward the next day when you wake up next to each other, in the same bed, and not know the other's name.
