Got a text from an old gasser wondering if they had my name wrong. New issue of PCM has a photo of me at Peotone with the last name of Greenwood instead of Greenberg. Thought that was kinda funny.

I think it's great Greg. Now you can start selling repop signs on ebay under the new name and no one will know it's you. LOL Ray

I hear you Greg. I'm betting my last name is mis-pronounced by 9 out of 10 people.

My parents went with the unoriginal path when they named my brother and I Shane and Shawn. Needless to say over the years I answer to both. Lol

Went to high school with a girl named Mary Christmas. People would meet her at a party and ask her name and she'd say, "Mary Christmas" and they'd reply, "Yeah, and Happy New Year - what's your real name?" She couldn't wait to get married and change her last name.
My cousin whose name was "Tommy Hood" named his first born daughter "Robin" - she had the same problem as Mary had.
If you are not driving your antique car frequently you might as well be collecting clocks!
Always remember you are unique, just like everyone else.
