My sister-in-law used to work with the Blue Laser group in Athens, Dr. Dong's domain.
Small world. I use to live around the corner from Dr Blue's office.

In Atlanta (DeKalb County, actually), the former Chief of Police was Dick Hand ... and, no, he didn't bother going by Richard. His career ended with an indictment and prosecution. Guess he was more of a Dick Head than Dick Hand.

There are also two doctors in Atlanta (I'm not making this up, I swear) named:

Dr. Horney (Gynecologist!) and ...

Dr. Bottoms (Proctologist!).

A also worked with a fellow sportswriter years ago in South Florida whose name was Flick Doyle. Because the preferred type font at the time for The Palm Beach Post was very boxy and our names in by-lines were in all-caps, the name "Flick" often caused some double-takes. Look below ...

By FLICK DOYLE
Post Sportswriter

After several calls in a short period of time, Flick ended up having to go by his birthname vs. his nickname. Good thing his last name wasn't "Yew". What the hell's a "flick" anyway?

It's true, it's true and can happen to you!

Holy Cow! :floor:

He'd been married to just about every single female in our comapny. We worked for a very large company too. His ex-wives didn't speak to highly of D.W. It wasn't unusual to be in a meeting with 3 or 4 of his ex-wives. Those were usually pretty non-productive meetings for those of us that had not been married, engaged, or otherwise er....entangled with him. :twisted:

He was a living legend!!!!!!! Not necessarily a good thing.:nono1::laughing1

Athens is my hometown. Lived there until I was 19. My in-laws live in Asheville and my sister-in-law and brother-in-law live over in Weaverville. Seems like we are always just around the corner from one another. Seven degrees of separation is always intriguing to me.;-)

I don't know whom I would fear more, a Dentist named Dr Payne, or the Urologist in Athens, whom I have never visited but know - (nice man), named Dr Payne. Never thought about his name in that context before you mentioned the dentist.

Ouch! You are hurting me.

Did you not read the restaurant thread? My dad eats at the same restaurant for at least 2 squares per day for the last 20+ years. Travel? Every day to the same old restaurant. He has truely logged the miles.
