Got this from the Huffington Post today:

Quote:

We've seen plenty of weird crime mugshots and heard plenty of bizarre stories. But when it comes to criminal names, this one is ... a mouthful.
Beezow Doo-Doo Zopittybop-Bop-Bop, 30, was arrested Thursday afternoon on charges of carrying a concealed weapon, possession of drug paraphernalia, possession of marijuana and a violation of probation in Madison, Wisc.

Zopittybop-Bop-Bop was born Jeffrey Drew Wilschke, according to court records unearthed by the Capital Times. He legally changed his name to Beezow Doo-Doo Zoopittybop-Bop-Bop in October.

According to Zopittybop-Bop-Bop's apparent Facebook account, when he's not in trouble with the law he enjoys activities including "eating," "standing," walking," "thinking," and "diamond." He's also single... so there's that, ladies.

Zopittybop-Bop-Bop was apprehended by authorities after neighbors complained of "excessive drinking and drug use" around a local park, the Madison police report says.

Police say that when they took Zopittybop-Bop-Bop into custody, they found him in possession of marijuana, drug paraphernalia, and a knife.
On his way to the prison, Zopittybop-Bop-Bop allegedly told cops that he would eventually "get even with them.”


Now, just imagine having to read this as a news story on the air.

I was actually going to change my name to that in November, but he beat me to the punch by a month! I thought it was a nice, gender-neutral name!

Well actually, I don't see what's so weird about it. When I first read the story I thought it WAS pretty weird until I realized that the "30" after his name wasn't part of it. Other than that though......

That is just what I wanted to hear, Scott. I was hoping to change mine to that same name, with the 30, so I'm golden.

When I was in my teens I had a friend named Wolfgang. Wolfgang Lagomarsini. Yep, that's his real name.

Now that you reminded me of him, I'm gonna have to go look for him on facebook.
