Quote: SlangNRoxI had a stats teach in college named Dr. Chance. Anyone know the odds of that happening?
The father of a friend of mine was a rheumatologist, which is the kind of doctor that treats muscle and bone problems, especially arthritis. His name was Dr. Paine. What I could never get was why they named their daughter Ima. That is not a joke.

Hmm... 0^0/0^0
Quote: AyecarumbaHmm... 0^0/0^0
Perhaps meaning 0^0/0^0 = 1/1 = 1 = 100% ????
;-)

That's just wrong. LOL

I have no idea, but I do know a Major Major and a Major Minor.
Quote: JimRockfordThe executive director of the Texas Peanut Producers Board is named Shelly Nutt
The link is to a profile. Sort of Shelly Nutt in a nutshell.
I also worked with a controller actually named Ben Dover. He had never heard the jokes. I was astonished.
In high school, my classroom driver's ed teacher was Mr. Ford. The teacher who taught simulators was Mr. Simonin. And my actual street driving teacher was Mr. Edsel. I kid you not.
Quote: WizardNo relation that I know of. Also, she spells her name incorrectly with the EL. Of course, she would say I do with the LE. Still, it is interesting she has the same love for math that I do. I almost became a high school math teacher out of college, but another destiny chose me.
Wiz, It is most likely that you and Judy Shackelford (or her husband as she may not be using her maiden name) have common ancestors, and probably trace back to the same root family. The descendents of Roger Shackelford of the 1658 land grant in King & Queen County, Virginia spelled their names with both the E-L and the L-E. Roger Shackelford was born in Hampshire, England in 1629.
The surname Shackleford traces back to 13th century southern England, to the town of Shackleford (now known as Shackleford Heath), about 30 miles from London. The first known Shackleford was William de Shackleford of 15th century Shackleford, England.
About 250 Shacklefords/Shackelfords served in the American Civil War. About 70% of them served for the Confederacy. The prevalent migration pattern of 18th and 19th century Virginia familes was south to the Carolinas and Georgia. The other most prevalent migration route was west to West Virginia, Kentucky and Ohio. That would explain the 30% who served for the Union.

Thanks! I knew that about Roger. I have over 10,000 blood relatives in my genealogy database. It is still open to debate whether Roger spelled his name with an LE or EL. I knew back in the day most Shacklefords were from Virginia and some in Kentucky. It doesn't surprise me that most fought for the Confederacy.
I didn't know that about the village of Shackleford. I'll have to pay a visit sometime. However, I have been to Shackelford County, Texas, even though they spell it incorrectly.
Talk about creepy!

Yes, it is most likely that his name was Roger Shackleford as that is how the name was spelled in England. People didn't spell so well in 17th century Virgiinia. I have ancestors from King & Queen County, Virginia too, most notably the Rogers and the Clarks. William Clark of the Lewis & Clark Expedition was the product of a Rogers mother and a Clark father. He is my first cousin six times removed. Take care.
Quote: Beethoven9thMy friend's mom once met a woman who had the same first & last name as she did.
So did I! Although this other Michael Shackleford spelled both first and last name slightly differently. Coincidentally, he also works in the gaming business, as an electrical engineer for a slot machine company.

Do you guys look alike too??
Quote: AxelWolfI wont say in on in a public message board but, I would be willing to bet a decent amount, that no one in the world, other then me has my same full name.
Full name, including middle? I might be the only one in the country myself with my full name. I know one person has my first/last that's living via google. He's some real estate guy doing way better than me right now. His middle initial is H. while mine is C. Someone with the middle initial of A. died in 2002.
"Sir, do you have any identification on you?" They ran a warrant search on your ass.
"No, Sir. I sure don't." My I.D. was under me, not ON me. So I didn't lie to them assholes, except-
"What is your name, sir?"
"My name is Raymondo Dellecrocce." Don't ever give them a common name like John Smith. Do you know how many warrants are out for the arrest for the John Smiths? There are tons of them. Don't give the cops a shot. Your name is Raymondo Dellecrocce." They run their warrant check and then:
"Well, Mr. Dellawhat. You're gonna have to hit the door."
"Thank you gentlemen. Have a nice day."

Better true story.... At my previous hospital we had an OB/GYN named Dr. Payne, and a urologist named Dr. Suffrin. Every now and then those two specialists would need to work together on a complex case. I'm not sure I'd want to be operated on by "Payne and Suffrin"!

Regular security guards would search for a warrant?? Or are you talking actual cops?
