What's in a name...

[Geoff Watson]

There's an Australian politician named Richard Face; commonly called Dick.

Where I work there's a girl named "Yue Dai"; pronounced "You Die".

Geoff.

For many years, on a frequently traveled route near my home, you could pass a funeral home that proudly called itself "Long Funeral Services". Mr. Long seemed to miss the fact that this wouldn't be a selling point.

Today, that building has been converted into condos. I'm not sure how well they sell, considering the building's previous use...

Heh. There's a former casket factory in Vienna that's now being used as a location for concerts. (Well, it was several years ago, anyway. Haven't been there lately.) It seemed like a selling point - of course, few people (as a group) are more morbid than us Viennese.

Oh my god... some of these...

Sage Moonblood?!? Moonblood?!?!?! Do they know that's an old euphemism for menstruation?
