Also, Kory, Koby, Kacy and Kody Clemens. If their father had been a ground-ball pitcher, I shudder to wonder what numbers their names might have begun with.
For the non-baseball fun, it's funnier when you know that "K" is used to signify strikeouts, of which Clemen has many. If he was a groundball pitcher I expect his children would be named Squib, Bleeder, HasEyes and ShotUpTheMiddle.
Michael Vick is a depraved fuck, should be banned from the NFL for life (which he will be, but for gambling), and his apologists should go fuck themselves. Or possibly go take classes on logic and ethics.

As to DJ's question, yes Cal Ripken is one of the all-time good guys in baseball, as is Tony Gwynn. Which is why they had such record turnouts at Cooperstown this year, particularly when all the majors sports look tainted and creepy.
Yes, quite frankly, clearly indicating that white font or links go to animal abuse-related matters would be a great help for me, too.

Yes, what Theodosia said. Please.
I once met a family with daughters named April, May, June, July, and January.
Anime fans? It's the crew of the Sol Bianca.
I didn't see the one with the chicks napping on his back -- I saw one where they were two months old and "feeding" in the driveway and another where there were young chicks and older ducklings following him around.
And my credit card account has been flagged

and yet again I can't login and view my statement online because knowing what the possibly fraudulent activity is would be
far too helpful.

The B&B where we stayed when we visited Cooperstown a few years ago said they were booked for this year's Hall of Fame induction within 24 hours of Ripken announcing his retirement.

Grrrrr.
