The Times has a piece today...

...in which it mentions a business consultant from Atlanta by the name of Kirt Greenburg.

"Is your first name spelled with a 'K' or a 'C?' "

" 'K.' Oh, and an 'I.' "

"Huh?"

"My name. It's spelled with a 'K' and an 'I.' "

"Huh?"

"My first name is spelled K-I-R-T."

"Really? I've never seen it spelled that way before."

"Yeah, well, I guess my parents were creative in that way."

"Well at least I won't have any trouble with your last name!"

"Oh yeah, that. It's spelled with a 'U.' "

"Huh?"

"My last name. It's spelled with a 'U.' "

"Where?"

"Never mind..."

What a hassle that must be!
