[em]AEGROTOCATELLUS JAGGERI[/em]
In 1995, a trilobite species was named after The Rolling Stones' singer Mick Jagger by Adrain and Edgecombe. As if that's not enough, it turns out [em]Aegrotocatellus [/em]means "sick puppy" in Latin.[/p] Mick Jagger was quite popular amongst the paleontologists - turns out there's another species named after him: a fossilized mollusk called [em]Anomphalus jaggerius[/em]. Only fitting for the Greatest Rock And Roll Singer In The History Of The Known Universe.

The real trouble with reality is that there's no background music.

Always end the name of your child with a vowel, so that when you yell the name will carry.
