I have an I. P. Freely example, IRL!!!!

I heard “leg over” in a British book, and was unfamiliar with the expression.

There was a politician in Michigan named Richard Headlee.
Worked for former governor George Romney and ran for governor himself later.
He went by Dick, even in his ads.

Lest we forget the now infamous [Dick Assman](Dick Assman)?

'Oops! Google Chrome could not find dick assman"

Appears we have forgotten.

There was/is a radio show host in the DFW area named “Ben Dover”.

I saw a collection of news bloopers recently where the weather guy was reading birthday wishes and fell for Hugh Janus, which I’d have thought someone would catch before air-time. One of the news anchors gave a bark of laughter and explained the joke.

Is that his real name or just a radio name?

Is it just me who’s imagining Mr. Janus actually being a real guy, that never ever gets a call out on anything, and can never get a booking for anything in his own name (or a cake with his name on, or a complaint taken seriously, or…)

I’m feeling really sorry for imaginary Hugh now :frowning:

Hugh’s parents were dicks. :slight_smile:

In a news story here the guy gave his name to the reporter as Heywood Jablowme. The reporter kept it in the story and it never got caught. Much hilarity ensued.

I think it’s his real name; he’s not a shock jock or anything like that. He’s more of a economics / finance type commentator.

(don’t put a dash between ben and dover or you’ll get a British pornographer’s site)

I have a co-worker whose mother’s name is Candi (or maybe Candy) Fudge.

My university roommate said he knew someone named Iona Beerwagon but I never knew whether to believe him or not.

I went to high school with a girl named Wanda Ball.

There’s Krystal Ball on MSNBC.

Perhaps it’s regional slang? I knew someone from Oklahoma who used got some leg as a euphemism for sex …

I went to school with Harry Crouch. Junior high was a living hell for him. Also a girl named Sandy Rhodes. Her father went by “Dusty”. I worked for Dick Peters and Richard Dick (Dick Dick). Worked with a guy named Harley Fork (his parents were bikers).

I knew a guy in Alaska named Harley Davidson. It was on his driver’s license.

I remember telling my class friends that there’s a jazz pianist (haha, pianist) named Dick Hyman. I even showed them his website to prove it. And I’ve actually seen him in real life, so he’s a real person.

Me too.
