You learn something new everyday...

like, for example, the fact that Englebert Humperdink is not his real name. It's really Arnold Dorsey. Never knew that.

First chance you get, find at watch the DVD of Eddie Izzard: Dress to Kill. He has a bit on Englebert and the name choosing process. Very funny DVD, check it out if you get a chance.
