IVD #3: Name Mnemonics

IVD #3: Name Mnemonics (Style)
------------------------------

HB: What's your name?
Style: I'm Style.
HB: I'm Janet. This is Donna. And that's Tony.
Style: Okay... Janet... Donna...xTony. You know, I used to be really
bad with names.
HBs: Omigod, I'm so bad with names.
Style: But you don't have to be anymore. Here, I'll show you in two
seconds. All I do when I'm introduced to you is make a picture
in my head. So if you're Janet, I picture you with the head of
Janet from Three's Company. No offense. And for Donna, I just
picture like the dawn, and the sun rising over your head. And
for Tony, I see you on the front of a box of Frosted Flakes.
Here, I'll show you.

Now, in the old days, I'd have them memorize my whole name: First,
Middle, and Last. But it came off as too gimmick-y. Now, I grab my
wing, or a stranger in the club (like another girl I want to meet) and
teach them how to memorize his/her First, Middle, and Last name. Learn
about mnemonics if you don't know this. But for it to work, YOU MUST
HAVE THEM REALLY SEE THE PICTURE IN THEIR MINDS. It also becomes fun
testing them later in the sarge to see if they still remember.
