 Notes on an overheard phone conversation with an unexpected observation about
                                     a name
                                        
Ring.

Ring.

“Hello?”

“Hi. I'm calling on behalf of a national marketing firm to see if you quality
for a study group that will pay you $500 for your opinions. What is your
name?”

“Sean Conner. That's S-E-A-N. C-O-N-N-E-R.”

“You must get a lot of jokes about The Terminator [1].”

“Actually, you are the first one! If there are jokes, it's about James Bond
[2], although that's actually rare.”

“Oh!”
