An Admission, Out of Nowhere, Just Because
In 1989, my second and third year of college, I would race home from class, through Miami rush hour, away from the badass musicians that went to that school, whom I had just been playing and practicing and grooving with, just so that I could watch reruns of the Golden Girls.
I certainly hope I am not alone in admissions of silliness.

I cried when Buffy Summers died on the show. The second time she died, that is.
I'd really like to let you off the hook, Teo, but you're on your own with this one.
Alright, I don't know who Buffy is, thank God, because that probably wouldn't help my case, but Kev, are you trying to tell me you have had exactly zero ridiculous decisions in your life?
COME. ON.
You are an Hombre. Come out into the cold with me.
'89 . . . mass quantities of twinkies.
That's all I remember.
Oh Teo, I have made MANY, MANY ridiculous decisions in my life. I'm guessing that I may hold the cub scout record for ridiculous decisions in one lifetime (bear in mind that the gist of my master's thesis was that music wasn't likely to take off on the internet, so there's one for starters); however, I'm not going to pour them all out here. I'll just throw out a few - really a tiny, tiny sliver of the collection - so you don't feel all alone:
I have seen Loverboy live in concert.
I saw Weekend at Bernie's when it was in movie theaters.
I learned how to play all of the bass lines on Night Ranger's "Midnight Madness".
I once considered adopting a one-word stage name.
I have sported a mullet.

That should be enough to frighten anyone.
Ha!!
Kev, you got me laughing very hard during the day today. Many thanks for sharing. I knew you wouldn't leave me out here by myself.
You are hereby mandated to compose a blog entry on the evolution from start to finish of your one-word stage name. Inspiration of the name, age at inspiration, actual name, points of consideration both pro and con as you saw them at the time, beginning of age where the idea began to wane, if it has occurred yet, reasons for the waning of the idea, and actual final decision to scrap the idea, and age and reason of final scrapping.

I have to think about that. So much shame on that one. Plus, I don't want to disappoint.
