So, the other day I was digging into this baseball player, Aaron Boone, and I got sidetracked by something that caught my eye. You know how it is when you’re researching something and you end up going down a rabbit hole? Yeah, that happened.
I started by looking up Aaron Boone’s career stats. I found a page that had all his stats from 1992 to 2009. It was pretty cool to see his whole career laid out like that, with all the MLB, Minor, and College stuff. Then I saw a comment about him possibly playing 2B for the Reds, and that got me thinking about his dad and the whole family dynamics there.
- I was reading through some old forum posts and it felt like stepping back in time.
- People were debating whether Aaron should play second base or not.
- It seemed like there was some disagreement between him and his dad about it.
But then, my search took a weird turn. I stumbled upon this technical thing about URL encoding. I clicked on a search result about “URL encoding,” don’t ask me why. It was talking about how to convert encoded URLs back to their normal form. It was way over my head, honestly, but it got me thinking about how much technical stuff is out there that I don’t understand.
From Baseball to Computer Issues
This led me to some pages about solving major computer problems, which, let me tell you, I could use some help with sometimes. My computer’s been acting up lately, so I spent a good chunk of time reading about troubleshooting tips. I also found this random bit about Excel data validation, which I guess is useful if you’re into spreadsheets. I tried to apply data validation in my Excel with mixed results. I should look into it more.
Then, for some reason, I ended up on a search results page about whether there’s an “Abaline” in Scotland. No idea how I got there, but it was like, page four of the results. I scrolled through it, and it was just a bunch of random stuff. It felt like a dead end, but it was kind of funny in a way.
Finally, I found an article about the role of a Designated Safeguarding Lead. It talked about their duties and credentials and all that. It was actually pretty informative, even though it was totally unrelated to what I started with.
So yeah, that was my journey from researching Aaron Boone to learning about safeguarding leads. It was a wild ride, and it just goes to show how one thing can lead to another when you’re surfing the web. You never know where you’ll end up!
