NICKNAME

WHEN I WAS A ENIOR IN HIGH SCHOOL, A COUPLE OF GOOD BUDDIES
OF MINE WERE MANAGERS OF THE BASKETBALL TEAM. ONE OF THEIR
FUNCTIONS WAS TO WASH THE UNIFORMS DURING THE WEEK SO THEY
WOULD BE READY FOR USE ON THE WEEKEND. THEY WERE PAUL LARROW
AND TOM LODGE. IT SEEMS THAT ONE OF THESE WASH DAYS, TOM
USED A BIT TOO MUCH SOAP, A FACT WHICH WAS ASTUTELY DETERMINED
WHEN THE FLOOR BECAME FLOODED WITH SOAP SUDZ. EVER SINCE, IT'S
NOT TOM LODGE, IT'S SUDZIE!
