@ Buff:

In what may be the most subtle and ridiculous one-up-manship I can imagine, I dated a girl whose last name was Haas.

Haat, anyone?

It's such a word as to invite to wild speculations.
Did I have a fiancé who's name was Haak? With a black eye-patch and an iron hook for a hand?

I'm up to eleven but I'm extending the deadline because I haven't had the time to organize them for proper display. Keep 'em coming.
