Downey

George Lucas' high school alma matre, the home of the Downey Ducks. He renamed Downey High School, Dewey High School in American Graffiti to avoid lawsuits.

Downey students like to think they're Downey Knights, but that just doesn't have the same ring to it as Downey Ducks, and students at all the other schools around them don't let them forget it!

Jehovah

The divine name of God, as used in the English language. From the ancient Hebrew, which had no vowels, YHVH or JHVH. Other languages use similar spellings.

The name Jehovah is so fearsome to some people that they went to the trouble to remove it from His own book. They alternate between the excuses, that we don't know the original pronunciation of God's name, and that God's name is Jesus, when in fact, Jesus isn't the original pronunciation of Yeshua's name and that doesn't seem to bother them.

"The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom", (Ps. 111:10), so fearing His name is fine. However, how is one to gain further wisdom when one fears fear itself more than one fears Jehovah?

Logos

1. From Greek, literally "the word". (See God's Word.)

Not to be confused with, or pronounced as, the plural form of logo.

2. Not quite as ancient as #1, but a really old programming language.

Logos didn't have time to learn Logos.
