Here's my thought - if you start out with one name, stay with the bloody thing for a while....
I'm trying to file some 45 RPM records, and guys like Sean Combs drive me freakin' nuts! If you don't recognize that name, first off - congratulations on your upcoming 55th wedding anniversary. Secondly, he's perhaps more likely to be known as Puff, Puffy or P. (P...hee hee...that's pretty funny...)
Yessir, I'm talking about the former paramour of J-Lo, the hip hop recording star and clothing magnate himself, Mr. Daddy.
And here's where he personally drives me crazy. How do you file this guy's records, when he changes his name every goldarn time he makes one?? Does he go under his original birth name, of Sean "Puffy" Combs? Should it be his most popular nickname - Puff Daddy? Did he once test-drive Puffy Combs??
It gets more confusing yet. He's also been asking us to call him P. Diddy, and even just Diddy as of late. For the love of Pete, this isn't an aftershave...pick something and stick with it for a while. You don't see Fiddy Scent changing his ding-dong name every couple of months...
Now J-Lo I can understand. She's had to play around with different names to help differentiate the various eras (ex-husbands) of her life. But at the end of the day, I just file all her discs under Lopez, Jennifer, and I'm generally pretty safe in the expectation that I can continue to do so.
I worry more about some of the names Mr. Daddy has yet to come up with. He's already gone with P. Can Poop be coming (that sounded less inappropriate before it appeared on the screen)?
Has he considered other letters of the alphabet?
All I'm asking is, keep one for more than a week.
Chow for now!

Nuts! I have been undone by two postings too close together...
OK, for the record: paper filing, not so good. Imaginary record album filing - exceptional!!
