I'm nobody. Who are you?
Sometimes that Christopher Cross song still plays in my head. Sometimes I hate my head.

"Think of Laura, but laugh, don't cry
I know she'd want it that way..."

That is the Chicago Manual of Style in a nutshell.

Some style guides will tell you to capitalize the first word after the numeral if the numeral starts the sentence. Better style guides will tell you to just rewrite the sentence so it doesn't start with a numeral.

In 2017 a friend of mine did "Pacific Overtures" in NYC with Mr Takei. I met him very briefly and he was a delight. Later I took a photo of him standing in the street trying to remember where he parked while the rest of the cast stood on the sidewalk shouting, "George, get out of the street!"

I do enjoy the conceit that 1930s tough-guy slang is still a thing in the age of the Cosmic Radio.

Looking good, Mr. Sterling. Hoping for a quick recovery.

I'm a total Foxy Shazam believer because of that song! Going to see them on Monday.

Man, that Stringbean bit is grim. I watched Hee Haw every week when I was a kid. I don't think I really liked it but we had a TV and that's what was on it (when it wasn't Lawrence Welk).

Nice to know that some people still know the original version.

Wow, that was a really long way to go. I need to lie down.

And you can get it if you try.
