1. Be nice, be nice
See if they have the brains to match, or they exceed expectations! LOL, that's pretty funny, though! My last name is Morahn... my old boss's favorite joke? "It's so easy, any Morahn could do it"... it was funny the first 37 times or so :eyes:

6. I heard about a study done
Teachers were given papers to grade of students they did not know, the only identifier being the name on the paper. It was found that teachers consistently graded those papers with a "weird" name a full grade lower than papers by students with a "normal" name.

Heard about this on late night AM radio, so take it with a grain of salt.
