Couldn't their parents afford a baby name book?

A Daily Herald story about a busted meth lab caught my eye, since methamphetamine production, thankfully, is not epidemic in the Chicago area.

But in Des Plaines, which is two towns west of Morton Grove, there is one less meth lab.

But the town does have two brothers named Alberto.

Two brothers, Alberto Melencio I, 40, and Alberto Melencio II, 38, lived at the home and were charged with manufacturing a controlled substance, possession of a controlled substance and possession with intent to deliver, police said. (Edgardo) Sagado, who lives in the 8900 block of Kennedy Drive in unincorporated Des Plaines, was charged with obstruction, resisting arrest and unlawful use of a weapon.

Boxing great George Foreman has five sons named George. His tongue in cheek explanation is, "In this career, you have to prepare for long term brain damage."

Meth users end up with messed up brains.
