I obviously get how people can use the keyboard side, but I have no idea how accordionists know which buttons to push on the other side.

I'm on my third day of listening to engineering/sales (mostly engineering) meetings between our vendor and customer. One highlight was a gentleman from Texas trying to explain the phrase "more than one way to skin a cat" to the Czech engineers. I'm glad my mic was off because I started laughing very hard when they asked, "Do you often skin cats in America?"

Man, that's some BS right there. Coward won't even own up to it.

A few years back, my fair state cycled through their standard license plate format (AAA ###) and moved to a different one (AA ####). They seem to be just issuing them sequentially (AA ####, AB ####, etc.) and I've noticed that a few months ago, they got to my initials combination. Strangely though, I see it all the time now. I'd say in around 40-50% of my car trips, I see one. I was explaining this to Jane a few days ago while we were driving, and thankfully an example presented itself about 15 minutes later.

The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.

If it wasn't the Vikings, I was hoping the Lions would take it.
