In responding to a student email, I somehow crossed "certainly no need to apologize" with "glad that makes sense." My new sentence became "certainly no need to make sense." Oops.

@metrolosangeles FYI: all of the QR readers at Pershing Square (B/D) 5th Street entrance are not working for Metrolink tickets. One reader shows "invalid card;" others are turned off completely. I tried to report using the Transit Watch app but that has been down for a few weeks.

Today I realized in a conversation with @slizlarson that C'Mon N' Ride It (The Train) by the Quad City DJ's is turning 30 years old this year. It was released in February 1996. Anyway, if you need me, I'll be planning my retirement.
