Weirdest thing -- Kate went to the PO yesterday to mail five packages, and apparently they only charged her for one. (You know the ones, Phillippe.) Then a postal worker rang the bell this morning, and he came in and had the packages with him and told me what had happened -- and then took cash, went back to the PO, got them sorted and stamped, and just came back to bring me change and the receipt! Way to go, USPS!

Handy Haversack:

coela, have you ever seen /C'etait un rendezvous/? We had it on DVD years ago, from a car magazine was I think the only place you could get it. It was a camera mounted on the hood of a sports car and the driver going just absolutely hammer down from the Arc de Triomphe to Sacré Coeur at dawn. No permits, no stopping other traffic, no warning the pigeons. It was great. I wonder if anyone ever interneted it.
