msbelle, when I worked as a checker at Kroger's I'd occasionally get a check with a memorable name on it. The ones I remember are a John Crichton and a Louis Wu. I sometimes wonder how many of those I missed because they paid cash.

Tom - glad they got him down OK!

Now tagless for your comfort.

Tom, that's awful! Glad they were able to get him down.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

So grateful he survived.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Why we can't have nice things, part whatever: Mr. S came in from playing outside and decided he needed a bath. Gary let him play for a few minutes, during which he flooded the bathroom out to the hallway and got the carpet soaked. This ended up with part of the first floor ceiling bulging a bit. Sigh...

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

That's a miracle that they actually got him down OK. Kudos to the police negotiator.

Way back when I worked doing data entry for Beth Israel Hospital, I had a list of the amazing names, but it's been lost for a long time now. The only one that I remember offhand was Dr. Jesus Viola, which I'm sure sounds less funny if you're from a Hispanic country.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

My immediate superior has the same name as a prominent member of the Trump administration. Fortunately, he doesn't share their politics.

As a teacher I see lots of names, including how many different ways there are to spell Caitlin, or is it Katelyn, or is it Kaitlyn, or is it...

Now all I can see is Keegan-Michael Key saying "Where is Ay-Ay-Ron right now?"

Every time I have to type in aaron I laugh A-A-ron indeed.

When I want to get on Tim's nerves, I call him "Tim-OH-Thee." Which is better than "TIMMAY!" from South Park.

He knew I was a dick when he married me.

I mean...I'm married to Jay-Quellin.
