This makes me wonder about the origin of Toady's name...
He isn't much of an obsequious flatterer, now is he?

Heh...I quite like Worst Jobs (even if it's just to see Tony Robinson making a bit of a prat of himself), but I've never seen an episode with a Toady.

There were toads in the backyard growing up, and we added a large pond there.  Knowing it would attract even more toads, we wrote "A Toady One the Great Production" in the cement we poured in the hole.  Then we started putting that at the beginning of some of the games we were writing in BASIC and then C.  When I created the web page in 2000 when I got to grad school, that was still kind of floating around, so we decided that I'd be Toady One and my brother would be ThreeToe because he had a guinea pig named Faustus at the time.
