What's in a name?

I get messages all the time: What does the name of your blog mean? Or at least I may get these messages, once people begin to visit the site and become curious. The answer is simple. I often bring bananas to work with me, as part of my lunch, or perhaps for a mid-afternoon snack. The library has vending machines in the staff room downstairs, but, like most food and beverage machines, the machines are filled with high-calorie, fat-rich treats. Like Lum-Lums and Nougat-Logs. I'll eat a Nougat-Log now and then, but I find, with all of my time at my desk, helping library-users with their reference needs and music-review writing, I need to eat smarter. My co-worker Nate isn't as careful as I am, and he easily weighs 280 pounds. Anyway, I bring bananas to work. And they often get smashed. I found a helpful device that helps save my banana from this fate. See it here: http://www.bananaguard.com/. Through an admitted creative conceptual leap, I aim to be the resource that helps prevent our collective classic rock heritage from getting smashed.
