I read the English Dictionary in short sections, comment on it, make bad jokes, and sometimes sing little songs. I hope it’s more entertaining than just reading the dictionary alone. It’s an evolving project so the letter ”A” had lower quality, plus less commenting and jokes.

Here is "Figure 8" by They Might Be Giants:

It's helpful that in figure skating you can actually SEE the figure that was made because it's literally etched into the ice. In fact there's a couple great photos of people looking at those in the first link. And those Special figures look REALLY hard to make on ice!

I read from fielding percentage to fieldwork.
Typically "field of view" is used for "external apparatus" but if you're talking about the eyeballs (retinas), then the average human has about a 210 degree field of view. I'm sure that lessens for many humans as they get older. I think mine is a bit less.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Field_of_view
The word of the episode is "field trip".
