'tim toadie' is how the anagram

tmtowtdi

is pronounced. which stands for "there's more than one way to do it".

it's like the catchy saying for perl, which allows coders to write in
different ways. the jury's out about whether this is great or not, and comes
down to personal choice. ruby is toady itself.
