I believe it's now either 'Chad' or 'Scro'.

Well, guys tend to mumble and they are sorry about that.

"But if we could just tax it!" - every hippie/stoner I have ever had a conversation with at a bar.

Bingo. The environment the consumer put the laptop in created the failure.

They could fish-eye it maybe... that would be more appealing to folks I would guess.

It would cover more of the screen, is my guess.

How common is it (or does it happen ever) that employers or third-party agencies provide supplemental insurance above and beyond the standard care? The reason I ask is that when working in the hotel industry we would get ill/sick Canadians constantly staying at the hotels getting hips, cancer-care, etc. To the point…

Ah, I see. I was trying to play off what you wrote - I thought you were making a joke.

Yah, she probably could have just walked into the job of Surgeon General if she was a hot white chick.

That sucks. I bet if there wasn't a crazy person ratting you out I bet you could have kept using it. It's rare not to see electronic devices on the plane, once it gets flying...

I am pretty sure that I read (watched? Myth Busters?) that consumer devices don't really effect a planes ability to fly safely (not a single instrument was even affected if I remember right).

The nerds over at Gizmodo (hugs, guys!) had something recently about a petition being pushed around to get the federal gov to allow phones, ipads, etc to work in 'airplane mode' while on the tarmac and taxi-ing (is that a word?). Not sure it's going to happen.

Learn your two-letter and three-letter words. Play it tight and pack your words in. Play the board and not words you 'see' in your tray. Play defense and eat a TW, DW or TL score with shitty points rather than let your opponent get the TW, DW, and TL themselves. You can do it!

Apple did it first!

I had already hearted you...

It makes zero sense. The ad is a composite of ideas and imagery, the idea would not get lost to somehow imply that it could be 'anyone' male/female/friend/teacher/religious person and still deliver the same message. I don't think it was done on purpose and they can certainly edit the ad and make some adjustments.

I want to go to there.

Go Zags.

I am not even going to look because I would be disappointed to find out that Wexley School for Girls is not an ad agency made up entirely of Mad Women.
