In the Mood for Love

I still have not developed the photos from the road trip, which incidentally include some pictures of scenes far more interesting than the road trip, because there are a few shots left on the roll for which there have been no further interesting scenes on which to use them. Once developed, you will be the first to know. For now, I will share something I came across on another website.

Perhaps you are familiar with Amazon's feature whereby users are alerted to material they might be interested in by the "Customers who bought this book also bought:" heading. For instance, if I look up "The Art of Computer Programming", I can find a myriad of other geeky tomes under their suggestion list.

Recently I found a (targetted) advertising link on friendster to an English-Japanese dictionary being discounted by the company Overstock.com. They have a section on the page titled "Customers who bought this item often buy..." and guess what they list.

Apparently customers who purchased that English-Japanese dictionary often buy the Original Soundtrack for "In the Mood for Love". I guess we linguists are just romantics at heart.
