How did Romulans infiltrate the University of Maryland in 1991?

On my iPad Mini, 7 doesn't seem perceptibly any faster or slower than 6.1.x -- just different, which is a topic for another thread.

My iPhone 4S, however, is a different story. It does indeed feel noticeably choppier/more sluggish in some respects. The dropping-out-of-warp starfield simulation the icons do when unlocking, for instance, often seems quite herky-jerky. There are other, intermittent, occurrences where the OS seems to just pause for a moment or two while it performs some sort of background process (clearing/swapping RAM contenets, perhaps), that just makes the whole experience of using the phone a tad more Jedi/Zen-like -- "patience, my young padawan". My 4S has only 16GB of storage, but 3GB free, so swapping RAM contents *shouldn't* be a problem of available space, no?

And now if you'll permit me to mix metaphors -- that's my two cents, your mileage may vary.

...and every reply to her from others on the list ended with: "and the horse you rode in on!"

I'm not sure a kilobyte-strength Cert would be strong enough to freshen the breath of some of the people I've worked with...

If you're talking about the FDA, at least try to get what the abbreviation stands for correct.

So, your old car, built in 1998, gets approximately 50 MPG. Your new car is rated by its manufacturer to get anywhere from about 32.5 to about 48.5 MPG. No matter how you slice it, the car built 13 years ago gets better mileage than the one you're waiting for now. That doesn't exactly inspire me with confidence. Granted, I've never heard of either of those vehicles, so I don't know if one is much larger than the other or not. Still, on the surface, it doesn't sound as if we're making much progress in this area.

...back when "Late Night With David Letterman" first came on the air after his morning show was cancelled, he started doing Johnny Carson's "Stump the band" bit again. In a very early broadcast, he asked the audience member whose turn was next what he did for a living.

The contestant replied: "I'm a software engineer".

Letterman looked bewildered, turned to the crowd and said: "Software Engineer? Does that mean anything to anybody here?"

Even when the fellow tried to explain it, it didn't seem to register with anyone, least of all Letterman.

And that was a mere 13 years earlier.

The big question is: did someone at Cantwell's office actually use XyWrite to author the bill?

Did they factor in how many of the non-drinkers were killed by drunk people?

...was the headline I suggested after attending a particular baseball game between the Yankees and the Brewers at Yankee Stadium. Curiously, the Post didn't use it.

I thought MeeGo stood for "Me Eyes Glaze Over".
