  1. You don't think I do that?
  2. You know, I don't really have any problem with her not conceding, for two reasons. #1 -- it's the process, what's wrong with following the process? Instead of saying it's bad for the democratic party, one should point out that it's democracy in action. #2 -- what if what if what if. She's the first woman to ever run for that office, she's got a commitment to give it absolutely every chance to get in. Oh, well, it's all going to be a moot point, anyway. (MHO)
  3. You do house calls? My TV is on the fritz, Fitz.
  4. Yeah, but ear plugs still color the sound -- quite a bit more than any interconnect or resistor will.
  5. Never heard of it, but sounds like something I'd be interested in. (wanders off to look up 'Sound Practices Magazine') You know you can buy it?
  6. I only mentioned it, because it's one of the higher amp draws. And yeah, my point was that it only had two prongs in a perfectly legal manner. Toaster ovens, too. In fact, other than my high-fi, music, and computer gear, I can't think of too much I have that has three prongs.
  7. Huzzah-buzzah.
  8. They're pervasive up here and in Japan, at least. Even vacuum cleaners have two-prong plugs.
  9. How long is that sale going on? Do I need a coupon? 33% is pretty good, I'll have to go look and see if I can find 3 disks I want.

    Not at all, I get that all the time. I suspect it's my complete lack of maturity online that throws people. 's'truth.

    I've been typing with a QWERTY keyboard since 1980 or so, ain't about to switch now. I guess it's a function of how well you know the keyboard already. It might trick you into concentrating and getting to know the keyboard better, so you may surpass where you would have been had you just maintained the status quo, however I have my doubts as to whether you would surpass yourself from where you would have been, had you concentrated on learning QWERTY keyboard. The theoretical ergonomic improvements (and lack of mechanical impediments) would provide small improvements at best.
  12. I love that commercial.
  13. It went up to $185 today, which is still a pretty great price. Also: 2 Terrabyter -- USB 2.0, so best for backups, but still...one should have backups...
  14. It's just an expression.
  15. He's got tubes up the pitootie.
  16. My point was, depending on how you phrased the PM, Jude may have gotten the same incorrect impression. Perhaps someone should start a thread to recommend making the site viable on smartphones with internet access besides the iPhone. Is there a "Suggestions" forum? Or perhaps just take a poll, asking people if it works on their smartphone or not, and which one they have.
  17. And if none of that works, bring a staple gun.
  18. "...about this matter..." is too vague -- before your previous post, I thought you meant about ad-blocking. You mean about the ads.
  19. Sure, why not? What's the difference between this and any other component that doesn't have a separate ground lead (I.E. 2 prong plug vs. 3 prong plug)?
  20. LOLPoliticians
  21. Burrito Bros. Super Chicken Burrito -- best burritos in the area, still.
