Sixth on this list smaller than Calgary by 10%.
Thinking Toronto is the capital is like thinking New York is the capital of the United States, when it isn't even the capital of New York State.

*cough* buy low sell high....
Or perhaps the "tongue-boring-through-cheek dept." might give someone a hint that it's satire...
Nope, apparently not around here.
Somehow I missed that. Makes sense now.
I blame sleep deprivation... I'm on my seventh straight day of overtime.
No seriously... WTF?
How could this be anything other than a flamebait article Tim?
And what operating system will they run?
I wonder if Microsoft has considered making a tablet friendly version of Win8 ?
Better to simply assume that he's an idiot, and work around him.
In fact... if you don't work around him you ARE the idiot.
Wow, a wearable concept device!!! That sounds metaphysical. "Hi Harry, what are you doing there?"..."Oh, hi Larry, I'm confused, do we live to be or be to live? This wearable concept device keeps coming up with 'The mist falls steeply, the trees abide.' I don't get it."
Actually... it would sell like hotcakes with the wanna-be set.
Dude, check it out! My watch is even more pretentious than I am!
Personally I went for this pretty little number.
(And I was shocked by the number of compliments it drew from co-workers... "Hey! Nice watch!... for a $100 Japanese watch.... now that I think about it, if that's the effect it has perhaps a Swiss watch would get me laid by random strangers...)
the thing on your wrist should be mechanical and made in Switzerland or you'll never get either a girlfriend or a job.
Now that's just bullshit.
Yes, an elegant watch is a smart move to behave like an adult, trying to check the time on your phone when you're sitting down at a dinner or conference table is just made of fail
No, your life won't completely suck if it's digital or made in Japan. It's no longer the 1980's, even bloody Casio makes dress watches. While some of them are still butt-ugly, this one does the trick and it's only $50.
Personally I went for this pretty little number. Elegant enough to wear in public without embarrassing your wife, girlfriend or CEO but cheap enough so that when it breaks or gets lost I won't even flinch. (It actually did get lost, inside a couch for eight months, still had the right time when I found it if that had been a Swiss watch I'd have been in deep fecal matter.)
Why do some people seem to bummed that the screen isn't flexible?
Because without it being flexible it is limited to 2" by 2" display as opposed to a 6" by 2" display. Whatever you think of that.
A 6" by 2" watch is not a watch... it's a wearable computer.
Remember the casio calculator watch from the 80's and how much of a nerd you had to be to wear one?
And I'm thinking in metric... 2" x 2"

Think of it as evolution in action.
I struggle with this when it means that, for natural selection to occur, children have to suffer. I look over at my healthy (fully vaccinated) 3-year-old boy and I try to imagine if he was sick. Breaks my heart.
Shame they didn't think of that.
Yeah, Al Gore is basically the Town Joke around Nashville, TN. During the three years I lived there, I never once heard his name mentioned in a respectful manner, and that includes on the local radio stations.
Most of the time you could get a laugh just by dropping his name into a conversation.
I'm sure that's nothing to do with jealousy or partisan politics. It's not like his political opponents had any bias or anything.
I'm sure the political right is so clear, honest and straightforward that they'd never resort to ad hominem attacks.
But hey, lets just make jokes about Al Gore instead, cause Al Gore. Am I right here people?
That never happens.
I wonder how history will judge this generation of leaders.

But yeah, it's not user friendly at all.
