My intention was this thread would make you laugh and might give you some inspiration. :)
When and if we hit 100 posts, we will have a contest and see who likes the best name of this lot. There will be no prize...but a ata boy.

I assume you are talking about Christian Louboutins (very expensive red-soled heels)... Cute and appropo. :D

I had a 9" common pleco named Dr. Zoidberg. Whenever he was interested in/upset by something, his sailfin flared up. It was all I could do not to lol when my kid, completely unaware of how wrong it sounded, said it was because it was aroused. o_O
