Went to college with a guy named Seymour Lenz.

Not to hijack, but a funny story: I travelled to Atlanta by bus to look for a job, arriving at 6 am. Walked around the corner in this city of a million or so, and the first person I saw was Seymour.

Knew a guy named Garth Pither who married a Martha.

"Garth and Martha Pither" quickly became a standing joke.

After that, did you see more Seymour?

Met a guy at a party years ago that had the same first name as I have. We both agreed we didn't like our first names. But I did feel better when he said, "Well, at least your last name isn't Yudkavitz like mine is."

About 15 years ago I sold a motorcycle to a guy called Rodcliff Bogle. He was filling a container with old bikes to send to Jamaica to rent to tourists.

He was a Jamaican himself and when he was test riding my bike around the parking lot of the student residence where I lived, I guess someone called the cops and the campus police shortly arrived... idiots.

Cheers

When a kid, My DDS was Dr. Chew. Went to HS with a friend named Richard Dong, we called him Dick and he was cool, however, if someone started making fun of his name, they didn't do it for very long.

Heap of Birds is a pretty big Oklahoma family. My dad served in the Marines with Charlie Heap-of-Birds. One day my dad had to assign a duty roster. He scoured the names and selected the following last names; Wren, Robbins, Swann, Eagleton and a few others. Of course he put Charlie Heap-of-Birds in charge.

The old guy sitting in the cubicle next to me is Tom Collins.

I still get a kick out of that every day. Sometimes it's the little things.

pronounced Leman (like the 24 hour race) Gilo (like the word Gigolo, contracted)

Oran (like in the moslem Koran) and Gilo (like the word Gigolo, contracted)

Lemon jello and orange jello.

Your tax dollars at work, from cradle to grave.
