I'm pretty sure without googling that its "Mad Dogs and Englishmen go out in the midday sun", the 1930's song by Noel Coward. Unless I'm missing something obvious. Sorry to be a sticker.

Poor 3G, it was dead even before it was born.

I acknowledge your desire for good summaries, but YMBNH. Apparently you never saw the now famous post announcing apple's ipod. Lame.

This isn't a tiny pool or hotel, this is Vegas pool party territory, where there are thousands of people at each massive pool. The pools cost over $60m each, just to gain entrance is $50/person. It's basically a big, very loud, drunken party in the midday sun.

They missed a fantastic opportunity here, they could have used the ray to heat the pool !

amen! #1 reason I've never understood podcasts... Reading is sooo much faster and more convenient.

not when you are driving a vehicle during your daily commute. Everyone that I know listens to podcasts during
drive / commuting time.

Yes, THE PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN. Screw the hi fi audio nuts. Give us lossy compression, give us 0day telecine's and cam rips.
Quality be damned !

If you watch and rate 5 movies/shows per day it only takes 27 years. That's if you don't commit suicide before then.

I once took a weekly history of film class. In one session we watched 3 buster keaton movies in a row, then a Jackie Chan movie
that lifted several scenes right from Keaton classics. By the third Keaton feature in a row, laughs were few and far between because we were literally laughed out after a couple of hours. The Jackie
Chan flick (maybe Police Story?) brought us back around, though, the fast pace, and the addition of sound/dialogue was a welcome relief.

"Then I saw those specs and just felt disgusted."

I realized just now that tech companies are actually delaying the digital convergence, and the profit must be staggering.

"boys, if we can delay this convergence thing a couple of years, we can sell millions of cameras, mp3 players, ebook readers, flip HD cams,
we'll get to the convergence later"

Somehow this is incredibly deep..

are they anything like terminatoes?

Dear Sir,
I have read about your terminatoes with
great interest and would like to procure a bushel
or two immediately for the purpose of making some
killer salsa.

Hi there,
I too lament the lack of classic pinballs. There is a skateboard shop on 11th street just off of first avenue that has a few classic
pinballs if you are in the neighborhood, but nothing like the rows of machines we'd see in big arcades. On the plus side, the flippers
are nice and strong. Nothing like walking up to a great pinball machine only to find out the bumpers are busted and the flippers barely flip.
