You can't use "s-o-c-i-a-l-i-s-m" or "s-o-c-i-a-l-i-s-t" because "c-i-a-l-i-s" is in the middle.

One of the more fun days I experienced was spending a couple of hours in 'name change' court some years ago."

My favorite uncle was named Dick Johnson. He died several years ago but was the best at telling stories and making people laugh. He would have loved this blog. His boss was named Sandy Butts. No, I am not making any of this up.
