Lorne: Snakes? Uh-huh. And they came out of your what? Okay. Okay, well, did they get up there themselves or is this part of a, you know, a thing? No, I'm not judging...Do we fight snakes? Angel: Only if they're giant. Or demons. Or giant demons. Are they giant demon snakes? Lorne: Well, unless this guy's 30 feet tall, I'm thinking they're of the garden variety.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

it depends on the phone: quite a few phones have bar code readers - it depends on the model of the phone. usually you can search for phone model and bar code reader and get the software program.

I have a phone with Symbian software and I have a bar code reader, for example.

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

I have a pair of Altec Lansing headphones that I bought at the Apple Store and I don't like them at all. But they were the only pair under $100.

“Not dead yet!”

Techno hivemind question. If I have a DVD of a concert, is there any way I can download/extract the audio so I can load it as an iTunes playlist?

You want either Handbrake [link] or MPEG Streamclip [link]

Both of them have iPod settings for export.
