And of course, if you happen to have a name like "Richard Wack", do not become a high school teacher. (True story. Though he is the sort of person that would have reveled in this fact).

Reminds me of a Dutch guy I used to work with, whose first name is "Cock" (no kidding, this is a real, although not very common, Dutch first name). He decided to not use his first name in emails anymore after finding out his (personal) mail was always getting filtered as spam. Liz	[reply]

I went to highschool with a girl who's first name was Semen. I just couldn't call her by it. I would always mispronounce it as "Semun". -Lee "To be civilized is to deny one's nature."	[reply]

What is about names of people in the educational system? I know of a dean who was called Richard Woodcock. (Just how many slang terms about the same thing can you put in one name?) No, I'm not kidding. Makeshifts last the longest.	[reply]

Reminds of the time I was working my way through college at a company owned by two men named Dick and BJ. I'm sure their respective wives got a giggle out of that. Cheers, Ovid New address of my CGI Course.	[reply]

Or Harold Dick - who was a Math teacher at my High School. Some anonymous person was kind enough, one weekend, to emblazen his door with a logo similar to Activestate's new lizard - sans hands - and the school in their infinite wisdom, instead of painting the door, sandblasted the "image" off leaving the outline. Useless trivia: In the 2004 Las Vegas phone book there are approximately 28 pages of ads for massage, but almost 200 for lawyers.	[reply]
