This morning on the way to work the radio djs were talking about vacations and the one dj said she wanted to go to the beach and build a sandcastle. A few minutes later, I watched a video that was posted by a friend on Facebook by an artist I love: Anastacia. In her song "In Your Eyes" (which I had never heard before), there is a line that says "making castles in the sand". How random!
UPDATE: the very next day, one of the first random songs of the day that played was Kate Voegele's "Sandcastles". What's with all the sandcastles lately?

Diane was telling a story of how her brother got pulled over for speeding the other day. He was going quite fast. The way she was telling the story made me think of when Jerry was speeding. The cop pulled him over and said he caught him doing 93 and Jerry said he must have caught him when he slowed down to take the curve because he was doing well over 100. Diane laughed and said that during the incident, her brother was thinking of the exact same episode! When he was telling them the story, he was drumming his fingers on the table like Jerry was on the steering wheel.

Shonda and I were on our way to see The Lone Ranger. She was talking about trying to sneak coffee into the theater. This reminded me of when Kramer tried to smuggle coffee in under his coat and he ended up spilling it all over himself.

Last night there was a parade, and some co-workers walked the parade route with a Lehman's "float". They all wore matching t-shirts with the exception of one co-worker's husband who didn't want to. This reminded me of the AIDS walk where Kramer refused to wear the ribbon.

Music Ironicness: David Cook - Billie Jean
Today Shonda was discussing her recent trip out west. She said in Las Vegas there was a fountain that put on a show to lights, and it was always to different songs. One of the songs was Michael Jackson's "Billie Jean". She said when it came on everyone in the area started singing. Well, about 15 minutes later, my Google playlist randomly selected David Cook's cover of "Billie Jean" that he performed on American Idol several years ago. So weird!
Here is his performance on the show...
And here is a studio version of the song...because it's just that good :)

Music Ironicness: Marianas Trench - Celebrity Status
At work, a co-worker just became a grandma. We were talking about the baby name, and that led to talking about celebrity baby names. While this conversation was going on, the song "Celebrity Status" by Marianas Trench came on.

Diane was talking about the pink flamingo she put in her garden to scare the critters away. She said it wasn't working and that maybe if it glowed or had flashing lights, maybe that would work. That made me think about the giant red Kenny Roger's chicken. So instead of a giant red chicken, it's a glowing pink flamingo!

A co-worker's wife is pregnant and he made a video of her belly button going in and out when she was laughing. This totally reminded me of when Jerry made up a voice that he pretended his girlfriend's belly button talked to him while she was sleeping.

Bruce and I were working on testing scripts in the new software. We entered an item that was on backorder. We had to send an email regarding this backorder, and we often abbreviate it as "bo". As Bruce is typing this, he said, "speaking of b.o. did you notice that ___ has really bad b.o.?" (name withheld for anonymity). He was referring to one of the software consultants we work with. He said he notices it when he steps in the room. I had to think of the smelly car episode where the valet had bad b.o. and it attached itself to Jerry's car and anyone who got in the car.

This morning Shelley told me about her Seinfeld experience over the weekend, and reshared it with Diane a little later. She said she watched the movie Les Miserables this weekend and she recognized one of the songs, but she couldn't think from where. Finally, she realized that it was the song that George had stuck in his head and he kept singing it throughout the episode. She didn't know that's where it came from. Diane didn't either. Lol
Unfortunately, this is the only clip I could find.
"Master of the house, keeper of the inn..."
