Tep, now you should start smoking. Just to be cool, like the rest of us
Smoking is SO 5 minutes ago.
Nothin'. I just wanted you to face me so she could get behind ya.

Only 'til you spark up the next one.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Smoking is SO 5 minutes ago.
Crap!
I would walk into that door every single time. I just don't walk in a straight-enough line, I bet. I mean, I walk into regular doors I've opened manually pretty regularly.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Can anyone clarify this quote:
Greek police have arrested a man who claimed his cousin sent him a text message from the aircraft minutes before it crashed saying that everyone was frozen.
It's from a BBC report about the Air Cypriot crash.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
iPod subway maps
Ooh!
What I really want is to be able to select a station/bus stop, and then have the iPod (or PDA) tell me when the next train/bus is scheduled to arrive.

ita, the NYT has more details on the arrest. The man was widely quoted in newspaper accounts yesterday. It turns out he had no cousin on the flight and seems to have been making up the text message. Is that what you wanted to know?

Odd. The whole timeline is confusing. Now they are saying that the bodies were frozen solid, yet this guy says he received a text message right before the crash. And the F-16 pilots saw two people trying to take control of the plane shortly before the crash. So apparantly some people died right away from the lack of oxygen, and their bodies gradually froze, while at least a few people stayed alive.
I just realized I didn't answer your question....

Yes! That makes sense. It sounded odd, anyway, since I didn't get being able to text message when other people around you are visibly frozen.
Next I wonder how long he figured he'd get away with it...
Let me go check the NYT.

Huh.
Well he must have known that the airplane suffered decompression, and inferred the cold from that.
