'Hello, this is Harry Dick and you're tuned into K-U-N-T, the KUNT. The weather calls for high humidity and lots of heat in the southern regions for the rest of the week in our area, and the moisture index is off the charts. News at 11...'

KUNT is just bad, but I rather liked KWTF

What is that Radio Lifetime?

Growing up my cousins lived in a court with a guy named Harry Dick. His full name was on his mailbox. Every time we used to go visit them we had to go look at the mailbox. Don't parents think when they name their kids?

I've done business with some very unfortunately named lawyers, but nobody is worse than Dick Hittler.

I am not joking. How that man doesn't change his name I do not know.

A friend of mine in college was named Harry Dick. We called him "The Dickster."

I sh*t you not.

Take care,
PK

I used to work with a former NFL player named Richard Shiner. For some reason, he went by "Dick". Dick Shiner. More an occupation than a name.

I work with a Hung Lo. And let's not forget former NASCAR driver Dick Trickle. In Texas, the Hogg family was an influential family in the 1800s/early 1900s. Varner Hogg named a daughter Ima - Ima Hogg.

I went to school with a girl named Anita Dick. I kid you not. She was a top 10% student, nice girl, with a very unfortunate name. What were her parents smoking...?!

On a side note, the U. of North Texas radio station is KNTU so as to avoid the aforementioned KUNT call letters...
