It's all about the pun.
And it's about a month later than I planned it.

And once I'd decided on going with an allusion to What's It All About, Alfie, I had to lose the examples that didn't go with Algebra. There were a number of variations that I had written down (some better than others) and some I forgot because I wasn't near that piece of paper. Going to happen.

But if you're going to round the bases, make sure you know who's on first. I don't know.

Update: So I discovered that Get Smart used the title What's It All About, Algie decades ago in Season 5, Episode 23, which is very illuminating according to the Law of Fives.
"The Law of Fives" was also the name of a (x, why?) comic published 5/23/10.
