i don't think anything makes me crazier than when i'm holding on the line for a phone company. i swear they train these people to not be sympathetic. one time with verizon, i asked for their manager and ended up getting three months of dsl service for free. i wish i had that kind of luck with my cell phone provider, sprint. it's my own fault for verbally agreeing to a contract over the phone.
i like the part in grosse pointe blank when john cusack's character is in the convenience store and the muzak version of "live and let die" is playing. that's a great movie :)

I may be crazy but while on hold today to alert Verizon that I’m moving I’m fairly certain I heard Muzak versions of "Mambo #5" and Ice-Cube’s “It was a Good Day”. I guess it could have been the Isley Brothers tune that was the beat for Ice Cube, but I’d prefer to think that Verizon knows what the kids like. Bottom line it brought delight to an otherwise wasted 30 minutes. Plus, nobody I know got killed in South Central L.A. Today was a good day.
