Named and shamed?

I'm fairly happy with the legacy of my moniker so far:

Kids in the Hall (sketch): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jmQRmHgExV0

Super Dave: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gvP-7PnN3PQ

Dave (TV Channel): It's got Qi at least!

Dave (movie): I seem to remember this being a bit sappy but otherwise not bad http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NX3en_Te7K8

So, have film/TV/Music done your name proud?

I've been pretty lucky in that there are no famous chipolata's to bring shame on my name.

Scissor Sisters 'Laura' is ace. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_QonuCFWz2g

Otto Preminger's film has a darn good poster at the very least.

And if we're doing surnames the band Gomez and this dude are alright by me.

Yeah, but how do you feel about the McDonald's owned chain, Chipotle, muscling in on your territory?

I am a winsome child, cute and furry, mentally sub-normal, a public schoolboy, or any combination thereof. And just when you think it can't get any worse, along comes Tim Walker…
