Eine kleine Mittleschmerz fur der mittlerer name*
Or: Rico Suave & De Boner**
Or: R is for Racketeering

I deeply resemble some of the speculation in the link provided by Andrew Sullivan's "Daily Dish" regarding Alberto R. Gonzalez' middle name, having bequeathed the first name of Ayn Rand's antisocialist "pirate" of "Atlas Shrugged," "Ragnar" to my middle child for his middle name. The suggestion of "Rico," however, pales before the brilliance(well, at least fair to middling) of my humble submission of "RICCO."

*haven't a clue if this is grammatisch.
**and who doesn't recall the classic middle school age pronunciation of "suave and debonair"?
