My boyfriend read the book Freakonomics over the holidays and shared this story with me:

A new mom wanted to name her son 'shuh-theed' and spelled it Shithead. Poor guy. Here are a few more interesting babynames:

"According to a recent report in the Denver Post, “out of the 4 million babies born in 2000 [in the US], 55 Chevys, 6 Timberlands and 7 DelMontes are about to enter pre-school. And that's just the boys. Let's not forget the girls. Consider the 25 Infinitis, 5 Celicas, 164 Nauticas, 298 Armanis and 21 L'Oreals - yes, she's worth it - who turn three this year.” (Denver Post, October 16, 2003) 'Shithead' indeed."

This book is amazing, it is a really quick read, you can probably finish it in just a few hours.

Read the part about the drug dealers living with their mother's, it is quite interesting smile.gif
