Our very own Aunt B (of Pith in the Wind) broke the news back in October that John Rich would in fact be having a child -- a child he would in fact be naming Cash. Cash Rich. Well, it's finally happened, meaning The Apocalypse is only about ... oh, one horseman away.

Cash Rich was born on Sunday, and the headlines are in: "Ego-tard Country Wreck John Rich Names His Newborn Son Cash"; "John Rich's Wife Gave Birth to a White Rapper" (props to SFP for sending me that one); "John Rich from Big & Rich Names His Baby ... Cash Rich. Lame!!" We'd like to extend our deepest congratulations to John and our deepest condolences to Cash.

Well, Tango Rich would be a ridiculous name.

yikes. condolences to Aaron Hartley who surely couldn't have foreshadowed this unfortunate coincidence several years go when giving one of his twin sons the same name.

@Casio: Indeed it is a shame. I want to make the point that I'm not knocking the use of "Cash" as a name in general; only in tandem with "Rich" is it a completely awful thing to name a kid. It's like if Aaron had named his kids "Broken" and "Lonely" or something.
@Ashley: Are you being serious? That hasn't been reported anywhere. Explain yourself!

"Cassius" would have gotten the job done, and then some.

I wonder if Taylor Swift and Hannah Montana are BFFs?

Mariah Carey named her baby Monroe - after her idol Marilyn. I imagine Johnny Cash is where his child's name came from. It is certainly no worse than Shaniqua or Apple.
