Talula Does the Hula

This article is too funny to pass up. Apparently some parents around the world don't give as much thought to the names of their children as Lisa and I did with Samuel. Talula Does the Hula from Hawaii is so embarassed about her name that her friends call her K, but that's still not as bad as being called No.16 Bus Shelter. And who would want to be named after a brand of cigarettes? Or a 6-cylinder Ford? (Maybe a Lamborghini: how about Countach Streeter?!!)

Other people who had more luck with their birth certificates seem bent on reversing their good fortune...can anyone guess what the two-word phrase is that "contains a four-letter expletive and expresses opposition to censorship"?!
