Strange Conversation
This morning started with a strange conversation with the guy who's moved to sit opposite me at work. Went something like this:
Him: What's your name?
Me: Jake
Him: (reaching for pen and paper) How do you spell that?
Me: (perplexed) J. A. K. E.
Him: Geek?
Me: (looking over to see that he really has written geek) Well, I am a geek, but it's Jake. (said really slowly)
Him: Oh right, what country are you from?
Me: This one.
Him: Oh, I thought maybe you were from New Zealand. It's the accent.
Me: I'm a northerner.
Jaap Steenis mailed me to ask what I though about Sash. Luckily he didn't mean the awful German DJ but a technology preview from IBM. Looks like it's worth a lot more air-time than the DJ as well...
Matt Clarke sent me a link to what looks like another contender for the Domino Graveyard - insidedomino.com.
