Used in a sentence (followed by a disclaimer): "Those are capital letters in the words Dick and Trickle, lest you think I'm going to post about something that sends the male species to their doctor's office."
And the disclaimer -- I wanted to mock that name since I saw the sports page article last week about how Ken Schrader bumped Dick Trickle off of the "oldest pole winner in a NASCAR series" list, but it was only when I went looking for an accompanying google image for tonight's post [WARNING -- make sure you have your "safesearch" feature ON before googling the phrase "dick trickle"], that I learned the Trickle family had more to deal with then just Mr. Trickle losing his record.
Sadly, Dick committed suicide in May of this year (and not because of his name ...). So ... maybe I shouldn't be making any kind of jokes. Oops ... Anyone know how to retract a post?
