The only person he could think of to call was his best SCA buddy, but couldn,t remember his real name, he could only say "Call Wulfgar", and the phone number. The call from the hospital came asking for Mr. Gar. Mr. Wolf Gar. Of course, NOBODY calls Wulfar by his mundane name, even at work. We worked at the same store for a while, and we already had 4 Dave's. Occasionally the P.A. would announce; "Wulfgar, line 2" They there's the time he was having coffee with our exchequer, and I addressed them as "The Gar brothers, Aelf and Wulf". Time to go away now.
