Mildly interesting tidbit

Well, maybe not interesting, but it was to me.

Anyway...I have these Buddhist prayer beads that I wear around my wrist. Today in the Dunkin Donuts, while I was paying for my nummy iced coffee, the woman behind the counter pointed to them in recognition, and called them, I think, Mala beads. (something like that.) She said she used hers every morning. (They are very similar to a Rosary)

It was the first time someone recognized them. It was just kind of cool.
