I knew a guy with the last name Foreskin.b,121b,121edit - How does that happen? OK, Hooker hasn't always meant hooker but Foreskin, can we not agree that that has basically meant hood from the beginning? And no one thought, "ehhh, maybe I should just kill this off now and change it to Forester or Forbes?"
