So, the Hitmonlee entry says that they are 4'11", right? So is that with or without those spring legs completely unwound? (we both know it's supposed to be with them fully coiled), As this artist's version of Hitmonlee doesn't have spring legs, and the method applied is a more "gritty, realistic" vision, I can see

I'm guessing that it's a Magikarp with a really good hologram transmitter.

Yeah, the local Chinese Buffet slaps one of these on a mini cake for you on your birthday. My daughter thinks they are the best thing ever. She's three, so, you know...take that with a grain of salt.

And then they make a taco shell out of those chips...

This sentence makes the writer inside of me want to stab himself with a spoon.

1. Already anticipating the hate spam, so whatever.

Magic item descriptions were never in PH's if I recall.

And the worst case run time for a scan of a human body? I mean, what kind of container are you going to store that in? An ArrayList? A tree of some sort? I mean, depending on the type of tree, the retrieval time would be almost constant time, but the building of the container...

During our first baby shower, we were given a diaper "cake", which was made up of a couple of boxes of N and 1 sized diapers, along with decorations of baby rattles/toys, bottles of baby wash, et. al. Believe me, with the cost of disposable diapers, and the number you go through, getting a gift like this is more than

I do that with some of my favorite series, be they book or television.

These are all super creepy, especially the phone booth one. I keep expecting her to explode or look up with some eerie grin, and instead she just keeps spinning...taunting me....

Let me start by saying I started reading this series when a friend handed me a paperback copy of Eye of the World on a MAC flight to Germany and I got hooked. I read Dragonriders of Pern when I was thirteen, and waded through Tolkein, Asimov, Bova, Heinlein, et. al., so let's just say that when your military career

I agree. Mat is the cowbell of the WoT series. Although the quick way that they disposed of Goll...err...Fain felt sort of...too easy to me.

You know that the Edge and the Surface Pro both weigh in at about 2 lbs, right? And, how much does that thin keyboard cost again? Oh that's right. 130 bucks. And...how much space is the Pro coming with? 64 gigs of Flash memory? or splurge for 128 gigs for another hundred bucks? Me thinks you should definitely

I think the book comment was sort of hyperbole, because when e-readers came out, people were pish poshing on them because what could they do that a nice book couldn't. But yeah, I own three tablets of varying make/size and I'm just curious to see if this product will live up to what it could be.

Depends on where you are and the laptop, I suppose. I know that I commute and carpool a lot, and on the some of those days where I don't drive and traffic on the beltway is hell, having a device that I could repel the warmongering Netherland Menace from my Roman Utopia would be a welcome distraction. And yeah,

Personally, I'm thinking of playing Sins of a Solar Empire on this. Any 4x game really. I'm really hoping this lives up to what I hope it will be.

I call bullshit on that weight measurement.

The Japanese, if I recall my Eastern Studies class correctly, bought wholesale into the Deming style of business management, which is based almost entirely on statistical improvement. I'm sure there's a wiki on it, but in short, it can be summed up as set a goal for quality, meet it, set a new goal, meet it...

Okay, okay. Apologies for the term confusion. I get the same way when someone calls a data structure a container. Which, interestingly, is almost the same parallel.
