Congrats Mindy, but did you name your son after your old neighbor, from a distinguished family of plumbers in Wapella?

Congrats to Mindy, BJ, & Sam from co-workers at the big insurance company up the road.
Congrats Mindy and BJ!! Sean is a very distinquished name. Many famous Sean's from Wapella! :)
Congrats BJ and Mindy! I believe naming her first son Sean was a Waynesville-style agreement that originated in high School. If I remebr right the terms correctly, they were that Mindy gave Sean $2 for lunch (everyday) in exchange she named a son after him.
Didn't make too much sense to me either, but when Brian West explained it to me, it seemed oddly clear.
