Toto Too?

I am given to understand that, when asked what their favorite Toto song is, the vast majority (of those who don't say "Huh?" or "Meh") will name either "Africa" or "Rosanna". So I guess I'm in a minority of a minority; I really like "I Won't Hold You Back", specifically for the variations they use for the lines that begin "to realize...".

I just thought I'd mention that.

The Times Are Changing

I just filled out a form, confirming that I had done such-and-such as required by my employer. The form asked for, among other things, my name. I typed in FirstName MiddleInitial+"." LastName, as I normally do in official contexts.

The form rejected it, demanding that I give a valid response without punctuation or numbers.

I don't know what to think about that.

I was just browsing one of the blogs I regularly visit, and saw a link to an article on "the new slide rule". Of course, my metaphorical ears pricked up.

It took me several seconds to remember that I was looking at a baseball blog.
