Last Names

My dad and I were talking about last names yesterday evening. I can't remember exactly how we started talking about last names. I know it must have started with discussing a musician and somehow it led to last names. Anyways, my dad had asked me if I would ever change my last name in the theoretical event of me getting married. I said if I'm a musician I won't change my stage name if I use my regular name. I brought up June Carter for some reason saying she had changed her name to June Carter Cash but had still kept her name. My dad said that was because Johnny Cash was more famous than her. He also proceeded to say that Patti Scialfa never changed her name even though Bruce Springsteen is more famous than her. I said if I were her I would have changed my name from Patti Spine Disease to Patti Springsteen.
Today, a package from Amazon came in the mail. My dad guessed that it would his hat and my Bundle Monster in the box. I got really excited because I couldn't wait to get out the Bundle Monster. We had ordered this set of reading lights from Amazon for me for when I go to college, and the brand name was Bundle  Monster, but calling the reading lights themselves, the Bundle Monster sounds way cooler than reading lights. We opened the box and there was my dad's hat, and the Bundle Monster, or so i thought until I picked it up and realized it was one of the reading lights I had looked at before I found the Bundle Monster. I was very disappointed, but my dad went ahead and ordered the Bundle Monster this time.
