Here's a lighthearted note you might enjoy ...
The University of Alabama is set to honor Mobile native James M. Fail by placing his name on a prominent fixture at Bryant-Denny Stadium. A donation by Mr. Fail to the Crimson Tide Foundation will result in the visitors' locker room being officially named "The Fail Room."
Mr. Fail served three years in the U.S. Navy before graduating from UA in 1949 and beginning a successful and wide-ranging career in the financial sector. His current duties include serving as chairman of Stone Holdings, Inc., and Bluebonnet Savings Bank.


I wonder what Mr Fail thinks about this. I mean I am sure he got some ribbing over his nane since childhood (though it appears he was not failure at all) but still after donating tons of bucks I am not sure I would like my name to be associated with a constant joke that will be highlited non stop when Bama is on TV at home. Who knows perhaps he has a sense of humor
