Skyfall
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IPEXyfqfOk8 I love the song "Skyfall" in the opening credits of the movie Skyfall. Seriously, it's amazing and perfectly captures the psychological feel and themes of the movie. Here's another great song that is in the opening credits of Quantum of Solace: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M1kK_17sl28

How Random Are You?
You don't have to be, and that's fine. But I've been thinking about it lately - last night and this morning, to be precise and thought I could do a post about it.
