What's in a name...
Jul. 21st, 2004 05:27 pmThere is a Mercedes dealership in the next city, which often advertises on the radio about the joys of a luxury automobile with much soothing music, surf, and cries of seagulls in the background. The name of the dealership is Jim Slemons.
After high school, I worked in a regional occupational program for a elderly veterinarian. My friend's mother told me once he had been arrested in the '60's for performing illegal abortions (well, at least he was a doctor). His name was Dr. Butcher.
Shortly after our first son was born, and John was still working at Food 4 Less, one of his co-workers asked after the baby. When John told her his name was MacKenzie Angus, she wrinkled her nose, gave him a funny look, and said, "You sure give your kids weird names!" Her name was Latrina.
When traveling in Queensland, Australia, I saw two hair salons. One was named The Tropical Follicle, and the other was Curl Up and Dye.
Boat names I've seen recently -
Just For The Halibut
SeaDucktive
Bait's Motel
Bottom Scratcher
Happy Hooker
Smeagol
Codfather
Weather or Knot
