Sincerity Theory

“Insincerity doesn’t accomplish anything except for making people hate you and making things worse. If you find yourself being insincere, stop it. Figure out what the problem is and fix it. Even if that means never coming out with a next move and eventually fading into the collective memory. At least people will remember you fondly.”

Stage Name Stories

Moby
Born: Richard Melville Hall
What’s in a Name: Childhood nickname bestowed by his parents; Richie’s great-great grand-uncle was ‘Moby-Dick’ author Herman Melville. Sadly, this connection to the great whale tale had nothing to do with Moby’s brief stint in the band Flipper.

That’s pretty cool. There’s a whole bunch in here that are just odd and makes you wonder how much they were picked on as kids because of their names—makes me realize my name isn’t near as bad as I thought. And there are a few that are just uninspiring and lacking.

Nerds Might Live Longer

“Brains are good for more than acing exams. Turns out, nerdy noggins also help primates like us live longer, anthropologists say.”

Sounds like a good thing, eh?

“The analyses showed big brain size is linked with longevity rather than reproductive rate.”

Could also explain why 'nerds' get less play.
