One thing that's missing from this discussion (by both author and the two commenters above) is what time they go to bed. For most people, that is a factor bearing on when they get up (especially if they don't use an alarm clock).

Precisely. And that's a rule that should NOT be changed.

Best comment of the day.

Isn't it wonderful to be able to prove anything you want with a sample of size one? (As in one observer.)

They'd have come closer to winning if Schwartz hadn't mismanaged his timeouts so poorly after the 2-minute warning. As in, he should have called one before Harbaugh did, prior to the FGA, to give his QB a little more time in case the FG was good. Maybe without the pressure of having less than 40 seconds in which to…

I understand he had some "attitude" issues coming out of UCLA after the 2012 season—apparently, "happy-go-lucky" isn't approved of in the No Fun League—but for three years as a Bruin, and now through 15 games as a Lion, all he does is catch touchdowns.

We're screwed.

No problem: at least you got me to (finally) give IFTTT a try! I'm sure I'll find another use for it.

Meaning, he became the Chris Berman of comedy five years ago? I concur.

Waitasec . . . he drives for RED BULL? Not exactly a "diet drink."

Same exact issue here, so it's not just you, Mark.

I couldn't believe the replay didn't result in a penalty, either. (Of course, half-the-distance would have put the ball at the 9" line . . . unless you spot the ball, measure half the distance, and find the tip of the ball breaking the plane: TOUCHDOWN, Steelers. But that makes too damn much sense.)

"Marine Corps" is capitalized. Unless the guy really wasn't a former Marine, but instead used to work for a maritime organization.

Holy crap . . . I just moved all my music to Winamp on my desktop, laptop, phone, and tablet! It must be my fault!

Since I'm retired, my desktop (24" and 21" monitors) gets the most use, by far. My Nexus 7 would be next, followed closely by my Galaxy Nexus. When I'm traveling (which is 4-6 times a year), my laptop and tablet vie for most use, while my phone gets a lot more use than it does when I'm at home.

Chrome, obviously, because GOOGLE.

Cheapest I see for the Logitech G400s is $47 at Amazon, not $44.

I was in NYC in June, and had Verizon LTE just fine in both Brooklyn (Prospect Heights, Park Slope) and midtown Manhattan, and at Yankee Stadium.

I should have mentioned that in Rapid City, I get consistently excellent Verizon LTE service.

Western South Dakota (Rapid City): Verizon—Excellent; AT&T—Fair; Sprint/T-Mobile—Nonexistent
