My Dentist's name here in the state of Georgia is Dr. Robert E. Lee DDS. Made me a little more than skittish the first few times I saw him, knowing that I'm from Michigan...
Cory the joke here (for those of you not up on your American Civil War history) is that Robert E. Lee was a famous Confederate (rebel)commander and Michigan was, of course, on the side of the Union army. Still makes me smile every time Mr. Lee's birthday comes up and I get to take that day off as a state holiday. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bob Walkden" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "John Francis" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, December 11, 2003 5:05 AM Subject: Re: OT:Weird place names-was: GFM Attendees (updated) > Hi, > > Thursday, December 11, 2003, 4:34:47 AM, you wrote: > > >> > >> even though it's fictional, I've always liked that > >> Dewey, Cheatum & Howe bunch from CarTalk > > > Then, of course, there were Lord Gnome's solicitors: > > > Sue, Grabbit & Runne > > there is a dentist (non-fictional) here in Greenwich called Mr. Payne. > > -- > Cheers, > Bob mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.
