He Better Grow Up to Love Whiskey
While watching the LSU-Tulane game Saturday, I met an Alum expecting a baby boy. I asked her if they had a name picked out. "John Daniel, after each of our fathers, but he'd go by Jack." Before I could stop myself, I blurted "Ohmygosh! You are SERIOUSLY naming your baby JACK DANIEL?!?!"
Maybe one day modern medicine will develop a cure for my foot-in-mouth disease. Until then, I can't help but wonder if this couple ever has another boy, will they name him James Beam? ...Of course, he'd go by Jim.

I swear, some parents never say their childrens name out loud before settling on it.
My friends and I pass potential names around to see how easy they are to make fun of.

Hmmm...is that as bad as those names we discussed w/Amanda: Dick Hurt? Harry Palm? Pete Moss? Richard Richards?

Geesh, I forgot the funniest one! Dr. Harry C. Beaver who is, indeed, an OB/GYN. What else COULD he have been???

My brudda went to school with a guy whose REAL NAME is Jose Cuervo and I had a boss once whose husband's name was Johnny Walker.
But the funny thing is, there really was a dude named George Dickel.
