Eric J. Lubbers Sings His Hits

The fauxpper-crust dwellers over at The Donnybrook Writing Academy (including Danny and Nina, who I interviewed upon their arrival in the Mile High City) have compiled a pleasantly ridiculous name generator, designed to make your blood as blue as purest indigo, at least in name.

I’ll see you over there.
