A smart kid should have a unique and witty name.

Perk: Aside for easy name recognition, obtaining a police clearance will be hassle-free.

Drawback: Expect some people scratching their heads and get their tongue twisted while pronouncing or spelling-out her name.

What's in thy name?

Worth the wait
After co-founding a start-up company last year, my wife has been persistently pushing me to have my own blog. Back then, my reply to her was "I don't have time", which rings true. A few months have passed and guess what?! You're now reading my first entry. Technically, this is my first blog post but it didn't count since it's a company piece. Now that I have all the time in the world to create a blog, I run out of any excuse not to.

So what’s in a name?
The blog title was derived from my name: Jigger.  It was a private joke between me and one of my classmates when he read a word from the dictionary. “Jigger, the one who jigs”, he said jokingly. Interestingly, the word “jig” pertains to a rapid movement which also denotes dynamism. 

Raison d'être

Anyway, the reason why I'm doing this is to chronicle my life being a father to a very smart kid (thus the blog description). Any parent would be proud of their children and this is my way of showing it. From time to time, I’ll be sharing the things (perks and drawbacks) that I learn on fatherhood.
