One time after I had picked up food from Jack in the Box I was looking at the receipt where, at the bottom, they were soliciting opinions about the whole Jack in the Box experience. The website was something along the lines of tell-jack.synovate.com. I found myself wondering what the odds were that the person who owned the Jack in the Box franchise in Bryan, TX was named Jack and wasn't Synovate an odd last name? Then it occurred to me that Synovate was the name of the survey site and the survey name was Tell Jack as in tell Jack in the Box.

More recently I got up from my desk to go to the bathroom and when it came time for me to go left to go to the elevator or right to the bathroom I went left. I waited for the elevator, got on, went all the way down to the basement and was about to step off the elevator when I realized that what I really meant to do was go to the bathroom. About this time one of the lawyers I work for gets on the elevator and gives me a look as I scan my security pass and press the button for our floor. At least he laughed when I did the polite clearing of the throat and stuck out my hand for a tip.
