Clearly you are on the phone line of the damned.

I'm impressed they have a muzak version already. My company's hold music is so bad that I have pranked people with it -- call when they're not there, then put their voicemail on hold so they get a five minute recording of muzak. So classic.

I saw a Muzak *van* the other day. Clearly they use that for their hit jobs.

There's a difference between the Coldplay version and the muzak version?

Muzak ditches Chris Martin entirely = the storm clouds still rain down shit but you can see the sun breaking through in the distance.

So thesedays, can you feed in a mp3 to a process which creates a midi file from the bits it recognises?

Martin has done an ACCORDION version which is up at Popjustice! I haven't downloaded it though, for some crazy reason :)

Please tell me you mean Martin Skidmore, not Chris Martin thinking he is Cajun.

I wound up waiting for 15 minutes. the guy quoted me 17.50 for 24hr delivery. I ~~pwned~~ phoned parcelf0rce, and they told me I had missed to-day's deadline, and now I have to get the parcel collected tomorrow which = saturday delivery which = they are going to charge me 41 quid. If I hadn't had to wait 15 minutes, I would not have missed the deadline I HATE THEM FOREVER FUCK THEM WITH HAMMERS.

Your call is still being held in a queue, and will be dealt with as soon as possible
