Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

The black one or the white one?
The black ones are selling better, I think.

Has anyone heard anything about the FBI raiding an erotic stories website? [link] (There's a Not Work Safe link abut the raid partway down the journal entry.) I was curious what was going on. Will my favorite fic archives have to move out of the US?

Black. So it matches my Razr. Because I'm deep like that.

don't get the Nano appeal, especially when the shuffle exists.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Don't get the shuffle appeal, when the Nano exists. This is a perspective difference, of course. When the shuffle came out, I said "cute! tiny! but without being able to see or select songs, it's broken".
(edit: okay, I said, "cute! tiny!" but then never could get to the point of dropping the money because of the other part.)

1) The Nano is prettier.
2) The Shuffle has no screen.
3) The Nano is prettier.
4) The Nano keeps track of what songs you played and when, and transfers this info back to iTunes.
5) The Nano is prettier.
6) You can play solitaire on your pretty Nano.

Shuffle - for workout, where song choice is less relevant
Nano - mini Mini, where I need playlist control, but of a subset of my music (teaching)
Regular - all mah music, all mah playlists.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
When the shuffle came out, I said "cute! tiny! but without being able to see or select songs, it's broken".
I said this until I saw one in person, at which point the CUTE! TINY! voices became waaaaay too loud for me to hear the other part.
But since I didn't have any money anyway, it was kind of a moot point.
[I still have not seen the Nano in person. I fear I would break from Teh Cute.]

Why it's OK to hate the Yankees:
According to this ($) extremely useful analysis by the Wall Street Journal’s Allen St. John, the cost per victory of a team good enough to make the playoffs is approximately $900,000 per. The White Sox made the playoffs at just $759,373 per victory while the Angels paid $1.03 million. In the National League, the Cardinals managed at $862,685 per victory while the Astros ponied up $921,068. The Yankees, on the other hand (with its $208.3 million payroll) led the majors with a ridiculous $2.2 million per victory, which is seventy percent higher than that of the closest competitor, the Red Sox, at $1.3 million. To root for the Yankees, therefore, is to root for the power of the money, pure and simple. You might as well root for Citigroup…
