14 June 2003: "Your blues artist name"

Just as a bit of amusing filler, I thought I'd acquaint those of you not familiar with the joke to the method of determining your stage name if you were a blues performer. It goes like this:

  1. select an affliction (adjective form if possible)
  2. select a fruit
  3. select an American president (preferably deceased)
For example, "Blind Lemon Jefferson," "Halitosis Apricot Jackson" or "Syphilitic Mango McKinley."

Mine's "Dandruff Raspberry van Buren."
