“I never heard the name “lawless” before...”
It’s not that uncommon, I’ve seen it a few times, but the first time I ever noticed it was a woman named Betty (I think it was that) Lawless, she was the head of the board of elections in Hudson County. I’m sure Ms. Lawless was a fine, upstanding woman, but it did seem quite amusing in a place renowned for voting by the deceased, etc.
I also saw a very odd name once: Forgotson, that’s probably the oddest I’ve seen.
I guess you are right about the oldest professions, I’ve always thought ‘messenger’ is a very old job too. I used to make jokes about that when I worked for a messenger service!
And Micheal Savage is a nut (he kind of lives up to his name), but I heard a great rant by him once, saying how the feminists and planned parenthood should all go over to the Muslim world and tell those folks to start killing their babies, see how that would go over. I loved it!
Messenger is a noteworthy profession. Remember, that's how we got the Marathon. ;o)
I always liked what Michael Savage had to SAY, it's just the UNRELENTING, unmitigated flow of Jeremiad that I couldn't bear to listen to anymore.
