Me: I just realized you and I haven't started a band yet. Why is that?
Peguero: I don't know about you, but I can neither sing nor play any instruments.
Me: That's OK. That doesn't stop a lot of bands.
Peguero: Like who?!
Me: Man, how many rock bands think scream makes up for lack of singing?
Peguero: Hmm. Ok, I'm with you on the singing. But what about the instruments? And neither of us can write music/songs.
Me: I can play the piano and flute. Listen, I've heard some songs out there and they are awful. Skill in lyrics or song is not necessary.
Peguero: Dude, I'm not joining a band if all we're going to do is make terrible music.
Me: Listen, this is how we get better. You can't improve if you don't try! This is what band practice is all about.
Peguero: Hmm. You're right. But what are we gonna call the band?
Me: We decided years ago. The Hedgeclippers.
Peguero: I don't remember this...
Me: Why do you think I'm bringing it up? I remembered the discussion from long ago.
Peguero: Why did we end on the Hedgeclippers?
Me: We were talking about AC/DC and how any band can have a dumb name and be successful, so we decided on The Hedgeclippers to prove it.
Peguero: Solid logic.

Anyone with us? We've decided I'm the hot, brooding one and she's the troublemaker with a heart of gold. We still have space for the crack addict, laid-back ladies' (wo)man, and egotistical asshole.
