You lost me at “infielder.”

The instant a business guy uses a sports metaphor to make his most important strategic point, I am lost. If you want me to understand your business idea, try wrapping it in Wendy Carlos’s secrets of synthesis or quotations by Orson Welles or the punchline to an old joke.

    My dad brought home “Switched on Bach” one day around 1972 and I couldn’t stop playing that record. Love to hear Wendy mentioned, always brings good memories for me. (Any memories of sports are few and usually things I’d sooner forget.)
