Question For half a million dollars, would you . . .

. . . name your child after a product? e.g. Viagra Jones, Maalox Smith, etc.

They were talking about this on the radio earlier this week, and I thought it was hilarious.

Would I do it? Yep. Baby'll just have to go by his/her middle name. But legally, for all intensive purposes and $500,000, I will name him/her after a product.

I was HOLLERIN listenin' to them on the radio:

Pepto Bismol, bring me some water!
Maalox, turn the channel!!

It was funny. I missed the first half of it, so I don't know if this is a real offer or what. I wonder what the ramifications of it are? Like, how long would the child have to keep the name? Hell, at 18, they could just change their name to whatever we had been calling them anyway. All I know is I was dyin'! LOL!

DISCLAIMER: I'm one day from being unemployed, so this seems like a good way to make some extra cash. If I was bringing in a good steady cash flow, I might think about it a little harder.
