White Tyrone

Well if your a really lucky person, once in a millennium you will see or hear about a white guy called Tyrone. Some people think it is racism to do this but actually it was a white man's name back in 1940's but declined in 1970's when it was a more common name for a black man. Tyrone came from the irish and meant "land of owen".

white whale

Something you obsess over to the point that it nearly or completely destroys you. An obsession that becomes your ultimate goal in life; one that your life now completely encircles and defines you.

Captain Ahab was so obsessed with killing Moby Dick (the white whale) that it in turn killed him.

The desire to be thin became her white whale. Through diet pills, starvation, vomiting, and obsessive exercise, she was determined to be skinny.
