about the Porkies movie, it was funny when the barmaid got a phone call asking for a "Mike Hunt".........so she yells real loud across the bar "Has anybody seen Mike Hunt?!!"
this forum gave me some much needed laughs tonight...

Went to school with Ora Love and Fern Moss. My mother in law's father was Hyman Popper. Let us not forget the famous NASCAR racer, Dick Trickle, a strong competitor in the Busch series.

While this is not an unfortunate name, it is funny. A very popular t-shirt at political meetings I used to attend was the shirt from Dyke college in Cleveland, Ohio.

At my previous job a mailing was sent to a gentleman with a surname of "Baldassari" but due to space limitations the last 3 letters got left off. The chief accountant came down to the IT department looking for blood because she was *convinced* it was a deliberate act. Which it wasn't. Really. Honest. 20 years later it still makes me laugh.

I went to high school with a girl whose name was Joyce Hood, she had a sister named Robin.
A late friend who lived on Briarcliff Road in Atlanta was named Dick Peterson.

Wasn't Bumpass the name of the nextdoor neighbors from Hell in A Christmas Story?

If a game lasts more than four hours at Putz Field, do they have to notify the team doctor?

I saw this sign in Goldsboro, NC. I had to turn around and snap a photo. There are so many possible unfortunate combinations between these two cities, I wouldn't touch it with a 10 foot pole. Oops. I said "pole."  Glenn

I was employed, many years ago, by Morehead State University in Kentucky. We had a written directive that all comments about the name of the school was to be phrased as Morehead State...NOT Morehead ! I will not forget the cheer done by the BSU cheerleaders during their annual visit to MSU by Ball State University. Shaking their PomPoms vigorously, chanting MOREHEAD....BALL STATE over and over ! THE CROWD WAS REALLY INTO SCREAMING THAT CHEER ALL EVENING !  I never could figure out WHY !!!

Don't know if it is still there, but there was a Vietnamese place in San Diego called A Dong.
