The Forensics of Sha Na Na
Not remotely important, but the weirdness might make you smile.
Just learned that one of the world’s leading figures in forensic linguistics, a guy who has helped train investigators from the FBI, the NYPD, the Secret Service, and the ATF, a Fulbright Fellow and Phi Beta Kappa member, now a Hofstra professor of linguistics and Swahili…
… was also one of the founders of the rock group Sha Na Na.
So whatever it is you’re doing in life, if you’d rather switch gears, it just might be possible.
