Hmm, seems to have been missed while I've been away. Dickie Owen, who played the Major Domo in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang and had parts in Zulu and other movies has died. http://www.1879zuluwar.com/t8588-dickie-owen-played-corporal-schiess-zulu-who-has-sadly-passed-away-on-tuesday-the-7th-april-2015

 

I couldn't remember who he was in Zulu until I searched for this photo. Now I remember

Two-way player Dick Kirk, who had one of the most memorable touchdown runs in school history, died last Tuesday at his home in Fort Lauderdale. He was 72.

A three-year letterwinner (1963-65), Kirk will always have a place in UF lore thanks to his 42-yard touchdown run at Alabama in 1963 that sparked the Gators’ to a 10-6 upset win over the heavily favored Tide and quarterback Joe Namath.

 

I should win something for finding a Dick that went both ways.

Couldn't find the video of said run on YouTube.

A dick discovery (maybe a Dickscovery!)

 

I'd say Richard "Dick" Spottswood is q/o material given his high profile in recent documentaries on music history. He has a fairly substantial Wiki page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_K._Spottswood#Book_and_compact_disc_sets

...but what a moniker!

 

Dick Tuck, the Democratic Party prankster-at-large, who bedeviled Barry M. Goldwater, Richard M. Nixon and other Republicans with bad-news fortune cookies, a comely spy, a treacherous little old lady and other campaign-trail tomfoolery, died on Monday in Tucson. He was 94.

It's been posted a couple of times already but I'm posting here too because of a "what a moniker!" Issue

Dick Leitsch, who conceptualized the LGBT "Sip-In" at Julius Bar in New York, who fought for rights for LGBT people to drink in bars, dead from liver cancer aged 83

Also the first gay person to interview Bette Midler 

I think his last name is pronounced "leech"

I wondered if anyone had actually named their kid 'Dick Head' so I did a search in births for England and Wales between 1837 and 1983. Only one came up:

Poor little bugger must have died of shame; he didn't make his first birthday
