I suspect it makes it easier for them. I suspect this, combined with the naming convention they specified feeds into an automated script in their publishing software to do a default layout, which their layout people then modify and insert tables and charts into. As for difficult for me, well when I signed that contract I proved they could get away with valuing my time at a very low rate.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Wow, I totally just sold my soul out to Amazon, enabling 1-click and everything. But I had to. Today's free app for Android was Frogger. Hey, everybody has a price.

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

Liese, I am DISAPPOINTED IN YOU. Yesterday The Wire was going for $70, and I held out. THE WHOLE SERIES.

Does anyone have any recommendations for a good Android image editor?

My phone updated to Gingerbread this morning. I really need to look and see what that really means.

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

Dude, that's not "repentance", that's "blowing the afternoon playing Frogger".

also, is the iOS version any good?
