Dammit, Handy. Now I'll have to change the number of tamales to throw off the law.

Here's a bit of trivia I learned a while back: Little Lord Fauntleroy was such a bestseller in both the US and the UK that it's credited with popularizing the name Cedric (which was itself created by Walter Scot, who didn't like the sound of Cerdic for one of the characters in Ivanhoe).

Ah, Sir Walter S created that name! Much like "Svetlana", actually "was coined by Alexander Vostokov in 1802".

Jeff Moore:

I kinda think that never playing more than one track from any given album is an unnecessarily tight constraint!

Of course maybe that's just because I'm not good enough to play on hard mode.

But what are you supposed to do when you've just discovered an album and you're super duper enthusiastic about it? C'mon, you kind of HAVE to play more than one track! Don't you?

An inflation calculator just told me that $20 in 1989 is about $50 in 2022. We get more swag now for our bucks! I think I just got a sticker or a fridge magnet for $20, and I may have won the drawing for a record.

Though with a "Cerdic" precedent you could say it's just part of a language shift, that's now easier to say. Like "waps" > wasp, "ask" > "aks", "asteriSK" > "asteriKS", etc.

@Matt from Springfield: sure, I wasn't proposing playing them contiguously; but sometimes it's fun to play something from a current-obsession album, play some other things which seem like they need to go with it for reasons, then eventually come back with another track from the album as a kicker. All in a set.
