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

Most useful iPhone app ever! [link]

All you need then is a Bluetooth robotic cocktail maker....

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I thought the iPhone lightsaber was the most useful app...

If I could actually use it to dismember my enemies, then maybe.

Jessica, depending on your version of Outlook, this may help you.

An actual light saber iPhone is against the law. I blame the Enemies of Tom Scola PAC....

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

So um, I just installed OpenOffice and it appears to be in Portuguese. Does anyone know where the option to switch it to English would be? Or have a direct link to Open Office 3 Aqua in English?

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

it is as if you work at the same place I do, and think similar thoughts to mine.

Oh man. I'm laughing, but I feel for you too.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Bonnie: George Malley! You learned the Portuguese language in 20 minutes?

George Malley: Not all of it.

A site that has catalogs different blank cassette tapes sold over the years: Project C-90

113 different TDK tapes alone. I was surprised at how many I recognized - I was thinking, "I bought a case of those... ooh, I had a few of those."

But no Maxell - WTF? No wait, those are under Hitachi-Maxell. I bought cases and cases of Maxell over the years. The UD XL-II pictured here [link] brought back many memories. So did the XL II-S. Damn, I bought a lot of Maxell....

OK, I'm a geek. I used to be quite obsessive over my cassettes. I had a nice tape deck and was sure to set the levels, Dolby, bias, etc. correctly. I would record every LP and CD I bought, and usually just play the tapes. Plus while in college I'd borrow albums and record them, as there was so much cool music and not much money. I'd also make a compilation tape every few months.
