I was just on hold with Verizon discussing a phone bill issue. There was a little bit of a wait for the agent (about 4 minutes) but what got me was the elevator music. It was playing the James Bond theme "You Only Live Twice".

Hmmmm.....appropriate for hold music I guess.

A few random thoughts as it's been 3 weeks since I posted anything.

My friend Fourth Breakfast sent me a pointer to a rather cool YouTube video (if you're a Jackie Chan fan). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RKAtwK1tOaE .

Was looking for a box to send something off in this weekend and found a box of stuff from my Ford Explorer (the stuff I cleaned out of the car when I sold it 5 years ago). In the box was my missing Jack-in-the-Box Jack antenna ball. I put it on the antenna of the Mini.

I drove with the Mini Cooper's top down on Monday. It was 71 degrees and sunny. Lovely.

I am not going anywhere in the Mini Cooper today. Top up *or* down. It's snowing. Go figure.
