Here's a game for you.  All of the facts below are real estimates from the 1990 US Census*.  All except for one that I made up**.  See if you can spot it.  Grin

Bad is the #17894 most common last name.
0.001% of last names in the US are Bad.
Around 2500 US last names are Bad!

Around 1250 US last names are Terrible!

But looking on the bright side, around 32500 US last names are Good!

In fact, around 2500 US last names are Nice!

Around 17500 US last names are Jolly,

And around 37500 US last names are Gay.

Around 10000 US last names are New, while around 2500 US last names are Old!

Around 15000 US last names are Strange, and around 1500 are Weird.

Around 1250 US last names are Flight, and around 5000 US last names are Sim!

*They come from a site (www.namestatistics.com) who says they got the information from the US Census.

**The name I "Made up" may still exist somewhere, but may not be very popular in the US

 I work with a guy whose last name is Kwik, and my now deceased grandparents last name was Swim.

  When I was a kid We used to make prank phone calls to a guy in the phone book named (and I'm not joking either) Dick Head, first of all, why would you even allow you name to be listed in the book at all, the guy had to of been getting tons of prank calls other than Me and my buddy, the dudes parent really must have had it out for him, could you imagine growing up with that name??
I think I would have gotten it changed as soon as I was legally able.

Mornin' Andrew.... Grin...!
Thank-you mate.... 8)...!
As you know, I have a wicked sense of humour which I love, and have to be very careful with, and is the reason why I use lots and LOTS of "smileys" and "LOL's" in my posts.
As we get older, (and wiser?), through experience, we can often see the funny side of life, and I revel in that... Grin... Grin... Grin...!
Unfortunately.... Cry...!
Some people are "not amused", as Queen Victoria once said... Grin...and in those cases I am wasting my time..Boo-Hoo... Cry...LOL...!
Still.... Smiley...!
Nothing will change my personality as a happy bunny, so that's something everyone has to put up with....including me... Grin...!

LOL...LOL...LOL...!

Cheers all... Grin...!
Paul.
(England...(Happyland)... Grin....LOL...!

P.S....and just to assure everyone, I am NOT "Gay", (...just Happy)... Shocked...!
LOL...LOL...LOL..!
