Both of the kids call their parents by their first names... I guess they always have. Not the first time I've seen that, with the 'I want to be your FRIEND' kind of upbringing, rather than the intimidating and domineering PARENT title of mommy and daddy/s.

It's strange, no doubt.

It was really odd, though, the daughter kept saying "Gary Condit" as though there were some other guy named Gary that it could be...

Seriously, it went beyond the first naming that some people have raised their kids to do.

You know, I was just waiting for Geoffrey Feiger to ask her "why do you call your father by his first name? Don't you know how weird you sound and how the jury will hate that."

Being told that you're weird by Geoffrey Feiger would have to hurt.
