Always wear your seatbelt.
Do taxis have seatbelts in the back? honest question as I have never taken a cab before. I have only used the MTA when in NYC.
Today we sail

Sir Christopher Lee, 93, heart failure.
RIP. I'm glad he got to bring us Saruman.
Definitely a legend. He could do evil (modern and archaic), comedy, drama, everything.

Plus he was a metal god. I imagine him going out with a badass guitar riff!
RIP, indeed.
