    Had to laugh. Was reading my hometown paper's article about a former high school principal charged with theft, and there it was:

    Really? A prosecutor named Bambi Couch-Page? Stripper name if I've ever heard one.

    That's worse than the urologist I once interviewed with the last name of Dix.

    "Got a blockage? We'll take care of that. Nurse! Hand me the broomstick!"

    "Yes, Dr. Anil Ram." :D

    Related note: I tried to find a pic of prosecutor Bambi. No dice. Damn.

    Tampa pitcher Grant Balfour.

    I know it's pronounced "bowel-four" and not "ball-four," but that's what I think when I see his name.

    When you name a kid D'Brickashaw, his career options are pretty much football player or bouncer.
