    Default Choosing a Name - Careful Now!

    We've all heard the jokes about people who give their children unfortunate names - Michael Hunt, Ophelia Balls, Richard Head......all of those. You have to take care when naming anything as you will have to live with the consequences. This applies to company names as well as those of people. You may have traded under a good solid name for years and not had a problem until you make the move to advertising your services online.

    Take a look at the URL's of these websites and wonder what people were thinking!

    Note: Some of the owners of these names are apparently no longer active on these addresses - I wonder why?
    Even more worrying though, is that some people don't appear to have noticed the problem yet!

    Once you've decided to definitely go for it & have your sex change, where do you go to choose the male genitalia you need?

    ......or do you just need to buy something to write with?




    Will the penis you choose be good enough for the job? If you want a really good one, go to...

    ......or is it just Powergen, the Italian electricity company?




    When you realise your new penis is incompatible with your bladder, how do you find a forum to discuss your incontinence with other similarly afflicted individuals?

    Brilliant, me thinks you have too much time on your hands
    I love Hendrix for so many reasons. He was so much more than just a blues guitarist - he played damn well any kind of guitar he wanted. In fact I'm not sure if he even played the guitar - he played music. - Stevie Ray Vaughan

    It's no wonder you prefer to go by the name 'Geoff'
