If you have to shazam "Bette Davis Eyes," this Algoma sign may stump you.

That is the strangest thing I've written all week, but I think I'm right. Let's back up a bit.

Dan Koeppel is right, right, right, and also 100% right about this:

A Wisconsin company makes them. The article quotes store owners who prefer the LEDs because Neon looks old-fashioned and out of date.

Please insert the I don't want to live on this world anymore meme right here. As long as we're on the subject of signage, here's something from the Wisconsin town of Algoma. How long did it take you to figure out what this used to be?

Don't worry. If you don't get it, you don't get it. There's no in-between on this one. But there's a nice little zing! when you get it.

MUSIC The author tells us about, and shares, the saddest playlist of his life: songs he Shazammed.

Not much. Except that it might be easy to fix someone's age by the songs they shazam. Here are some of the songs the author didn't recognize, and required the all-knowing computer in the sky to identify:

- "Bette Davis Eyes"

- "Goodbye Stranger", Supertramp

- "Sultans of Swing", Dire Straits

I expected the comments to note the lacunae in the author's music knowledge (It's not that "Bette Davis Eyes" is a great song, but that clapping / slapping sound was the first time anyone sat up and paid attention to a sample. This was where pop music was headed) but the discussion devolves using Siri vs. Cortana to open Shazam.
