BELOIT, Wis. - Police years ago pulled over a young woman who rushed through an amber traffic light. "I'm about to arrest this person right now," the irritated officer radioed to a dispatcher. "She's telling me her name is Marijuana Pepsi Jackson."
It's the truth. Marijuana and Pepsi are her legal first and middle names, and the Beloit woman embraces them as a symbol of her struggle to succeed and to help other children overcome obstacles.
No Mary or Mary Jane or Mary Wanda for her. It's Marijuana, thank you, she's told bosses, co-workers and friends over the years, and even wore it on nametags at work.
This tall, striking, self-assured, motorcycle-riding woman is a schoolteacher with a master's degree in higher education administration. Soon, she'll start work on her doctorate.

LOL! Funny, whenever we had a substitute teacher, Dick Hertz usually wound up on the attendance list!
I went to school with Dick Hertz too. He never showed up except when we had a sub. Isa Hore was the other one who didn’t show up unless we had a sub.
I kept a list and passed it around FR years ago, and it is lost to the ages. However, there was one child who stuck with me. His first and middle names were Christian Dior.
I brought it up with a lady at the school; she rolled her eyes and said "I'm sure it was just a coincidence".
Has anyone seen Mike Hunt?

Her parents must have been stoned when they named her.
Maybe they took the Stoner Pepsi Challenge.
