Memo from the Department of Useless Information Retrieval
This morning I couldn't remember, when asked by the receptionist, when I last visited the eye doctor.
Among other potentially useful things I can't remember: anything from my graduate school statistics course.
But with only the letter X to go on, I answered 59 Across in this morning's New York Times Crossword, "1985 Golden Globe-nominated role for Eddie Murphy."
Answer: Axel Foley.
