    Someone once told me there was a dude back in high school who's name was William Hardon. Of course, everyone called him Willy. And of course, the class room attendence role was read out surname first.

    One is amused by the ambiguous moniker www.carpetone.co.nz in Lower Hutt. No, it's not a used car yard on Jackson Street.

    One that my kids found rather amusing a couple of years ago was seemingly built on my name:

    http://www.kensimaging.co.nz (Ken's Imaging).

    However, it can be read as "Ken Sim Aging". For some reason, my kids thought it rather funny...
