Hey, Marv Alpert!

And I for one am glad to be done for this season with hearing that every single three-point shot came from Down-TOWN!

Plus, Go Spurs!

What is his real last name-meaning born w/it. Brothers Al, Steve changed theirs too.

Which Faifax High classmate of Alpert is charged w/ murder? Phil Spector.

I don’t know if you were asking me, but Felipe Alou’s last name is Rojas. Alou was, I believe, his father’s name. His son Moises has the legal last name Alou due to his wife’s being unable to communicate that it was not supposed to be his last name. I think he has some children with the last name Rojas, but some actually using Alou.

No,asking about the guy w/brothers Al & Steve not, brothers Matty & Jesus.

Not a Spanish expert, but I think mother’s maiden name goes last in Spanish countries & father’s in the middle. Then in US, the mother’s name is dropped. I may have that reversed,however. Re: Alou, for sure the name is not close to ah-loo in spanish.

The babe on that album cover is Herb Alperts wife and she was 7 months pregnant at the time.

Dang! She looks way too hot to be somebody’s wife.

(LOVING the S&M records gag, btw!)

Ok, I am confused. My understanding of the construction of a Spanish name is:

First name
Middles name(s)
Father’s last name
Mother’s last name

And that even though the mother’s name ends the sequence, the legal last name is the father’s last name. Have I been misunderstanding this for all these years?

This Year’s Model:

You are correct.

Of course, most Americanized Mexicans drop the mom’s last name, and use their father’s name exclusively, or use the mom’s name as a middle name. (At least here in Houston)

Jaade, Thanks.
