Natural Event Naming Designation

While over at Jane Says and reading the blog on Wildfire X I had an idea for the next job I want. I want to be the person that names natural events. I will be President of the Natural Event Naming Designation Enterprise. I will solicit several of you to be on the committee. I need creative people to assist me in this process. We will come up with creative names as opposed to the non-imaginative names that are given (by whoever does this now) "Wildfire X", "Northridge Earthquake", "Hurricane Andrew" etc.

We will start practicing with "Wildfire X" and then future natural events. Here is what we currently know about Wildfire X (Hopefully, this information will help you with your submission)

*2000 acre fire
*It is on the edge of the Grand Canyon
*(Visit Jane's Blog to see a photo of one of the firefighters (name Truly Brown)
*It has consumed 3.1 miles of Ponderosa Pine Trees
*Believe the fire was arson
*The fire is 60% contained

So what should this fire be renamed to?

Hello? Arson is NOT a natural 'event.' So why are we naming this one?

Nothing about a fire or diaster is funny.

I am sorry Kim this is the first time I cant support you. I feel like I am disrespecting a higher power if I play this game

What kind of "a higher power" would you be disrespecting Teri? There is only one and his name is GOD! I'm am so sick and tired of this politically correct crap. Either you don't know GOD or your an alcoholic-higher power my foot!

It should be called 'Killer 10.') I vote we call all disaters either natural or manmade 'Killer something.' kays

I always wanted to be the person naming the new lipstick colors. Maybe we can combine careers here and go with Firey Red...
