So you can't name your child ...

  1. Years ago when my parents named me Peter. I was kidded a lot by people and a lot of other people wouldn't say it and wanted to call me Pete. But I wouldn't allow it.

    Many women would forget my name and call me Dick and when I corrected them would be very embarrassed.

    My mother was totally oblivious all of her life and usually refered to me as "My Peter". Thanks a lot for that mom.

    But I persevered and received some solace from Johnny Cash's "Boy Named Sue".

    The last time that I had an incident was when a women asked me my name and I said Peter. Then she wanted to know it anyone ever kidded me about that. To which I replied,"Only low class trailer trash". I could see that she was badly insulted as she walked away. Guess the shoe fit her to a T.
