Rumor has it my parents considered naming me Phyffen.  I'm not sure
if their final decision was an improvement.


And there really is (or at least was) a real estate agency
in Schnectady, NY (where I was born) called:

"Droms along the Mohawk".


(My surname is pronounced as though the "o" were a "u").
