    Chad Wackerman - one of Zappa's drummers.
    Moonunit Zappa - one of Zappa's kids.
    And in the same vein of drugged up rock star parents naming their kids there is also a:

    Zowie Bowie - David Bowies son

    But he now goes by the slightly less interesting name of Duncan aparently.

    They still have them. Rather obnoxious really. Not so much what they say but the number of the signs. If you're driving east or west on I-70 anywhere within 10 miles you feel you HAVE been raped by the scenery killing signs. I think... "If I wan't a friggin' RV I'll buy one, leave me be!"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,350 ✭✭✭Lust4Life


    I thought it was Frank Beard.

    I actually knew a guy named Mike Hunt. Just imagine his wife calling him home from the pub!

    I met an asian-american the other day who's first name is Thong!

    Are you sure you are not confusing him with Randy Johnson? They are both pitchers. Randy Johnson is nicknamed "The Big Unit", as if someone called Randy Johnson needs a phallic nickname.
