I just received a notification from Amazon that the Fellowship of the Ring DVD is available for preorder.

Gotta love getting voicemail messages containing a mumbled phone number and no identification of the caller.

Relief...

I've filed an extension request for my tax return, so now I don't have to worry so much about it.

1. What is your favorite restaurant and why?

It's a tie between Puerto Solis, one of the best Mexican restaurants anywhere, and Brazie's, one of the best Italian. And they're both within a mile of my house.

2. What fast food restaurant are you partial to?

Jack in the Box, I guess. I eat far more fast food than I'd actually prefer to, but none of it is worth going out of my way for.

3. What are your standards and rules for tipping?

I used to tip at just over 14% when I was a poor college student. Then I went up to 18%, and now it's closer to 20%, or even more when either the bill is unusually small or I am feeling generous. Why those numbers? Divide the total bill by 7 to get 14%. Divide by 6 to get 18%. Divide by 5 to get 20%.

4. Do you usually order an appetizer and/or dessert?

I try not to, but very often do. I order appetizers far more often than dessert, because I'm hungry when I arrive at the restaurant but full by the time dessert comes around. I'm especially fond of spinach and artichoke dip, or anything involving mushrooms.

5. What do you usually order to drink at a restaurant?

Coke at lunchtime, sometimes (very rarely) iced tea. At dinner, usually either wine or just tap water.
