From the obit columns
Studs Terkel has died. I know next to nothing about him or his life, but I do know he had an absolutely brilliant moniker. "Name?" "Terkel. Studs Terkel." Lucky bugger. How could he have failed to succeed (in, er, whatever he did)?
My only up close and personal encounter with his work is his absolutely toe-curling sleeve notes for a John Lee Hooker album I have. It could fill Pseuds Corner for weeks.

Studs Terkel started out in life as a mere Louis - if he can do it, what's stopping you?
Studs Mac. Hmm. It could just work...
