    How did they come up with the name "Ein" for the dog??? I have watched Stray Dog Strut several times and havn't found the reason. Does anyone know what I'm talking about? It's driving me crazy!!!!!

    -Thanks :)

    If memory serves me correctly, Ein is from an illegal research laboratory and that's why those guys wanted to get ahold of him so bad. Ein one smart little doggy, probably from what they did to him in the lab, which you can see from his escapades throughout the series. So... Ein is short for Einstein. ^.~

    Oh!!! I never thought about Einstein, Ein is also the number one in German, but that probably has nothing to do with it. :&

    Unless playing on Ed's computer has opened him up to the doggy Matrix and he is 'The One'.

    if you take the blue pill you will forget all that has happend
    if you take the red pill you will see how deep the rabbit hole goes

    and if you take em both you turn into a dog

    Jesus Christ, at least 400 bux for a puppy? : (

    Well, Jet's full name seems to be an adjective...I dunno about the others.

    Even if I am reviving a thread zombie...
    Was the name question too easy for others to answer...?
    As we all know:

    Jet Black (kind of an adjective)
    Spike Spiegel (gotta love alliterations)
    Faye Valentine (another butt-kicking female in space going by that last name, but not related to Rebecca) and (now drawing a long breath for this one):
    Edward Wong Hau Pepelu Tivrusky IV.

    And make sure to check out Ep. 16 (the one with the mushrooms):

    Frog: This is the stairway to heaven. You know that, don't you?
    Spike Spiegel: Obnoxious little frog.
