I'm linking to this small cornucopia of Apollo 13 links and info for one reason, and that's because I'm pathetically grateful for the fact that this movie gave me the chance to hear my last name pronounced on screen. It was the first and probably last time I got to hear it, but darn it, I enjoyed it. Jack Swigert also has to be a relative of mine in some distant fashion, given the rarity of the name.
Update: Gotta love the internet. Reader Ken was quick to point out that Patti Smith's debut album Horses contains the song "Kimberly". You can listen to a snippet of it here.
