Look what I found at work
It's a set of stereo headphones code-named Radek!
I work for a cell phone manufacturer and all the cell phones have female code names before they're announced and the accessories have male names. And yes it is because the accessories plug into the phones, the pins fitting snugly into the phones connector! Bloody male engineers. Still, it does lead to some fun finding out the names of the latest bit of kit that they design.
I checked the list today and there's no John or Rodney, but there's a David (portable changer) and a Jason (a multi-charger). I like to think that if Rodney and John ever appear that they'll be two accessories that work together perfectly. Maybe a beautiful, black flight case (John, of course) to protect the phone from scratches and a blue-tooth enabled watch that has more gadgets and functions than you can imagine and lets you use the phone (in it's flight case) as a life signs detector.
On to more mundane things I've had a stinking cold all week and Japanese visitors at work. Barely a moment to myself to blow my nose. Absolutely worn out by it all. Of course instead of having a weekend to catch my breath and sleep I've got a friend coming to stay for the weekend. Oh well, onwards and upwards.

See, they are accessories, and they want to be together, but they must always use an obnoxious female phone to.... ummmm.... be close to each other. But then, they get zapped by some funky x-ray machine at an airport or something, and Rodney's consciousness changes "bodies" with a phone, and they live happily ever after, getting "plugged in" day after day after day...... for hours on end....
Just wait, it'll happen.
