KEVIN - just a touch

Throughout the travels, from Mexico to Argentina, whenever I introduce myself as Kieran nine times out of ten I get the same response:
"Kevin?"
No, Kieran
"Kev-in"
No, Kieran
"ah, Kevin"
I then get introduced as Kevin to all others.
I don´t mind the obscurity of the name Kieran, it´s the global domination of the name Kevin which bothers me, from the jungles of Guatemala to the Peruvian Andes everyone knows the name Kevin and no-one knows Kieran.
I put it down to Messers Keegan, Costner and the boy from the Wonder Years.
We then arrive in Buenos Aires to find KEVIN plasted all over the place.
There´s a popular scent here called KEVIN!! "just a touch" indeed.

Which explains the posting below.

There was also a gerbil that used to knock about with Roland Rat. Do they eat gerbil over there? The definitive Kevin is Kevin O'Shea of course; such tight trousers,so little sense.
