BTW, what a GREAT name !!!

Although I have to say having the last name Gross wasn't the easiest as a kid. I vividly remember back when I was in Kindergarten, 60 years ago. I was sitting at my seat at a table of 5 or 6 other students having our milk and cookie break. One kid laughs as he swallows a sip of milk, and it spits out his nose (as only 5 year olds can do).

All the other kids reply -- "Oh, Gross !!"

Then they all point at me and laugh.

I remember saying to myself -- "Man, that's going to get &%#& old fast."

................... and it did

Still, Fun, fun, Scott
A brother in Gross!!

My family leans waaaay into our name. Our son was married and the party wedding website header was “Let’s get GROSS!”

And we had a 20+ year tradition of hosting an epic neighborhood Halloween party that we called “A Very Gross Halloween Party”

You gotta be lucky to be Gross!!
