Have you ever heard the saying, "his name is Mud(d)?

That is something that originated because the numerical value of the Hebrew word for mud, botz, has the same numerical value as the name Muhammad.

Thus the Prophet's name was mud, mathematically.

This judge has been so prejudicial that any appeals court at all would order a new trial from the beginning for poor Mr. Westerfield, and almost certainly would not allow any allegations about porn on his computers to be brought into this trial.

My understanding of the term "your name is Mudd" is that there was a Dr. Samuel Mudd who treated a man who suffered from a broken leg. The injured man's name was John Wilkes Booth, the alleged assasin of Abe Lincoln.

Dr. Mudd was later interogated, investigated, slandered and libeled until his "name was mud."

I heard the saying 'your name is mud' was derived from Dr. Samuel Mudd. He was the physician who treated John Wilkes Booth after the assassination of Lincoln.

At least that is the story told at Fort Jefferson where he was imprisoned.
