Runner up would just have to be this fella:

I mean - he may just have to change his first name to IL. You know, to keep with the times.

I am humbled. Although I once had an attractive medical school classmate named Boon Kok.

She is now Dr. Boon Kok to all you base-minded miscreants!!

The company I used to work for had a manufacturing plant in Bangpoo, Thailand. Bangpoo boasts the Bangpoo recreation area. I never inquired what that was for.

There was an accountant who worked there whose last name was Kittiporn. I can only imagine how berserk the porn filter went every time she tried to send an email.

Once worked with a guy named "Ed U."
Unbeatable.

Re Monty...maybe baseball reference was right (predicted 72 win season)?

John's call:

RUBBA-DUB DUB! GLEED FILLS THE YANKEE NEED!

Gleed's parents obviously named him after being inspired by Sly Dunbar and Robbie Shakespeare.

Monty got one year--ONE--at 25 mil. So, we couldn't even do that, eh? Pathetic.
