Personal experiences with the name Sam: | Edit

My husband's name is Sam. I never imagined I would marry anyone named Sam because the name sounded so boring to me. Actually my Sam is the most loving, loyal, trustworthy, nonjudgemental person I have ever met. When my friends and I are talking, I frequently say "Damn Sam" simply because it just goes together.
