"greet me by name" rufus. They use photo recognition. I had Td bank. First time i walked through the door of one in Miami. One teller says "Hello Robert" All my banking with them had been up north before that one visit. They deny using it. How else can you explain them knowing my name? Good guess? Maybe.

On to poppy seeds. Today i tried to buy some for my wife. She loves pasta with poppy seed and sugar. It's a Slovakia thing. I can't find any seeds in the store. so i come home without them. My wife tells me "you need to ask a manager for the seeds". Seems these seeds get stolen all the time.

I didn't see any visual mention of them in the trailer we saw a couple minutes ago.

Mine is #11, Matt Smith. Amy Pond (Karen Gillan) came with him, I threw her away. Amy Pond's daughter, River Pond, (Alex Kingston) also available. I would throw her away also. The only companion I would not throw away would be Rose Tyler (Billie Piper.)

Not buying it. They know me since I'm there regularly and have multiple accounts.

First time i walked through the door of one in Miami. One teller says "Hello Robert" All my banking with them had been up north before that one visit. They deny using it. How else can you explain them knowing my name? Good guess? Maybe.


It was on your card, your account info you handed them, name tag on your shirt, and then there's that tattoo on your forehead.....

It's " L'ELEGANCE " with an ELL, not a CEE.

Of course, it is a contraction of, "Le Elegance"--the apostrophe is a huge clue. I must have had French turned off in my head Sunday afternoon.

Thank you, Arthur, for correcting my misread of the lettering on the entryway canopy.

[quote="MurphOnMillerAve"]I thought it might be interesting to have a thread where asking random questions that did not fit under any of the larger headings, nor have anything necessarily in common with each other or any one theme, might be welcomed.

Here's my random inquiry:
If I get a new cat, or two new cats , what do you think /quote]
