shake dust

I don't know how often this happens for other people, but on occasion I don't get something. For example, someone might use a double entendre and I might be at a loss at what everyone is laughing at. One of my coworkers has pointed out that something like this may be happening with my blog name.

I have already explained the shakedust name in a previous post. What I have been told, though, is that "shake dust" is a drug reference having to do with a powdery substance. After some initial thoughts that this may be true, my googling the term has not turned up anything yet. "Gold dust" is apparently slang for cocaine, though.

Regardless, I am not changing my name because a few people somewhere may use it as an obscure drug reference. It'll take more than that to shake me from this name.
