Dick Trickle is dead.

According to the sheriff's office, Retired race car driver Richard "Dick" Trickle, 71, died Thursday from an apparent self inflicted gun shot wound.

I remember a quote from a news story, "The winner is Dick Trickle and nobody thinks that is funny."

The name doesn't ring a bell. Sad ending though for another law abiding citizen.

Definitely the most unfortunate name in entertainment. I might feel bad about it if the guy hadn't been a complete jackass. (My dad knew him.)

He might not have been a complete jackass if his parents had named him Robert, Charles, Edward, Harold, Steven, Fred, George, Wayne, Ralph, Thomas, etc......

When you're as old as Bronzeage, the name Dick Trickle as a special meaning.

You're older than him and your senile ass fucked up that sentence.

We (well, the nearby city and not the town I actually live in) had a mayor named Harry Baals. Recently it made national news and late night talk shows when they refused to name the government center after him even though the people wanted it.

Dick Trickle was known for steering his race car with his knees while he lit his cigarette.

I thought you were joking till I saw a news article this morning. I used to work with a guy named Dick Burns. It was often difficult not to snicker in meetings. Why would a guy choose Dick over Rich or Richard or some such? It seems so profoundly dumb.

There was a man in my city named Delicious Peters. He was kind of proud of the name and had it printed on his checks.

How much trouble would be to say, "Hi, my name is Del Peters?"

Well at least his name has a positive connotation. Whenever Dick Burns' name came up (among the women I worked with), someone would always say "ouch."
