A Unique Name For Unique Cub Fans

A few years ago, a couple of friends of mine moved away from Topeka and went to Arizona. A few months later, I moved to Chicago. While we had left Topeka, they had a small son. They liked Kansas so much they named their first born son Kansas. Being Christians and with the path to God being the "narrow path" they gave this son the middle name of Lane. Eventually we all returned to Topeka, and I was introduced to Kansas Lane Barker by his parents.
Do you think that is a unique name. Well so did I, until today.


Two Chicago Cubs fans in Indiana whose last name is Fields have named their son Wrigley Fields.

Wrigley Alexander Fields was born Sept. 12 to Paul and Teri Fields of Michigan City.

"He can go by his middle name if he wants to," Paul Fields said. "We'll go with Wrigley for now."

This kid better be a Cubs fan forever?


Cubs officials have no record of other children named Wrigley, though they have come across babies named Zambrano and Ryne after Cubs stars Carlos Zambrano and Ryne Sandberg, the Post-Tribune reported.

Nebraska Senator Sues God

Yes folks, the title is correct. A State Senator in Nebraska has actually filled suit against God. According to Fox News:

Nebraska Democratic State Senator Ernie Chambers has decided to go straight to the top in an effort to stop natural disasters from befalling the world.

Apparently on Friday September 14, 2007 Chambers filed a lawsuit against God in Douglas County Court. The lawsuit seeks an injunction against God to get Him to cease certain harmful activities and the making of terroristic threats.


Chambers says he isn't suing God because he has any kind of beef with the deity. He says the suit is to fight possible laws restricting the filing of frivolous lawsuits. Chambers tells KPTM FOX 42 News that his lawsuit is in response to bills brought forth by other state senators to try and stop lawsuits from being filed.


Oh really? Wouldn't this be a reason to support restrictions on frivolous lawsuits? In my opinion, it is long overdue in putting a stop against these kind of frivolous lawsuits.
