My brother-in-law had a teacher named Candy Cane (dunno if that was the spelling). I knew a Mercedes Benz.

In Oklahoma these names aren't really unusual since there are a lot of Indians here, but there are last names such as "Runs Like A Bear"....I know of a few others but I'm blank right now.......dammit now I'll think about it until I end up flipping through the phone book.......

I worked with a guy a while ago who, after "Dances with Wolves" came out, his wife started calling him "Reclines with Remote".

As long as I'm reminiscing - there was another guy at the same place who was short, stocky, and had a dour disposition. He, of course, was known as Grumpy.

one of my closest friends kids are Hunter, Gunnar, and Sage (a common CA desert plant). Yes, they re supporters of the 2nd amendment.

I know Dusty Rhodes. Went to school with him. Have broken bread and countless beers with him. Not the ZZ Top guy.

I went to school with a Harry Bush and I worked with a Jane who married Dick Organ.. Not Richard.. but Dick. And they of course have a large collection of Dick and Jane memorabilia.

That's better than a large organ collection.

There is also a tilesetter in my town(male) named Patty Williams.
I'd kill my parents.

I don't get why it's funny. Other than being an adult who keeps a childhood nickname.
