Canada Loblaws

Comment: I don't know if you guys have ever heard this one before. It might be only
a Canadian thing. We have a chain of grocery stores up here called
"Loblaws", I don't know if you have the same chain in the states or not,
but i'm assuming not.
I had heard a few years back that the owner of this chain's full name was
"Bob Loblaw" now, the trick here is to say that name out loud. It comes
out sounding JUST like "Blah Blah Blah". I've always been curious as to
whether this was just an amusing rumour, or if someone was crazy (and
cruel) enough to name their kid like this.
