  • Watch the 1986 Blockbuster movie Highlander, starring Christopher Lambert and Sean Connery
  • Understand that while the lead was a French actor playing the Scottish hero, it totally made sense to have Sean Connery play a Spanish guy
  • Be able to use the catchline "There can be only one" in conversation
  • Know enough of the lyrics to Queen's "Its a kind of magic" to pretend to sing along
  • Accept the truth that 80s movies are the best movies

My greatest regret so far is not trying to sneak in the obvious exception name when I added this.

At work we have some members that have not seen The Lord of the Rings movies and I'm trying to incorporate that into our OKRs. This is serious stuff.

I was recently in a quaint little Portuguese village and got talking to an elderly portuguese lady in a shop, her English wasn't great and she asks me where I'm from, I tell her Scotland, and she replies "AH, SO YOU'RE AN IMMORTAL!". It was so out of place it took me about half a day to realise she was referring to me being a MacCleud of the clan MacCleud descendant :) made my year.
