Anniversary

Today is the 17th anniversary of my arrival in the United Kingdom.

Rest in peace, Jack LaLanne

To non-USans, the name Jack LaLanne will mean nothing at all. However, to USans of my vintage and below, he was something of a TV icon. Physical fitness was his life, and he lived a long one, dying at age 96 of pneumonia. He liked to say, "I can't die: it would ruin my image."

No it didn't, Jack.

Tpday's Customer Service Video

Have you ever been exasperated with the extremely low level of customer service from your mobile phone company?

It's in Flemish, but with subtitles. Enjoy (courtesy of BoingBoing)!
