  1. My friend Vic was asked to repeat his name once, but the professor couldn't hear well, so Vic repeated his name.  The professor appeared offended and replied, "You mean, Richard."  Vic simply nodded his head and said, "Right."


  2. The first Richard was a d**k.

  3. King Richard the 3rd was always refered to by his family as Dickon. So the association goes back a ways.

  4. The same place Bob comes for Robert and Jack comes for John.

  5. DON'T KNOW...

    BUT I LOVE IT WHEN MY DAD CALLS MY BROTHER THAT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
