“Duke” – I think fiend is much more fitting… interesting too that you found me on a search when you recognized the “michele” piece. Glad to be back in touch with you.

Alora – a totally unique name is now a blessing and a curse.

There is a converse problem, though: when you have a COMPLETELY unique name, like I do, you can’t ever hide. A Google search on my name will turn up crap from when I was in college back in 1997 — some of which I would pay to make go away. (None of it truly harmful to my brand/life now, but just embarrassing enough to remind me to be careful.)

However, thanks for the explanation. I kept meaning to ask you why you started using Michele in recent years. I just assumed it was that recent felon convicted of marijuana possession in the U.S. South…

As an old high school fiend, I will attest to the veracity of your blog.

It is funny, though, that I thought I had located you when I saw that story about the recent felon!
