Aptonyms

Gene Weingarten of the Washington Post is always collecting aptonyms, or names of people that appropriately describe their line of work. Today at lunch I heard two doozies, both from the same co-worker. The first was the doctor who delivered his baby: Dr. Gerber. The second - and far superior - was the doctor did his wife's nasal cavity surgery: Dr. Pickens. The latter has had me snickering off and on for the better part of an hour now.

I thought that with age came wisdom. I guess maturity trails behind even that.
