    I'm aware of what Gawker is and is not. This is not about what they should do as an organization, it's about the insane bias of some of their staff. Molly is particularly guilty of this, as she often writes glowing comments about left-wing politicians, and negative, often downright nasty comments about right-wing

    Thanks! Glad someone around here appreciates it! I didn't really do all that much work, Molly linked to the other post in this one. I don't think she realizes how biased she is - or she just doesn't care.

    Good to know - thanks! I'm giving this one to my mother and taking her upgrade, so I won't be selling it, but I'll keep that in mind for the future.

    Yeah Apple is awesome with support. You of course get a 1 year warranty OOTB, so the issues only arise after then. If it's a defect, they usually fix it. I don't think AppleCare is a good buy on their computers, either.

    When Romney does it: "In what is by all accounts a pathetic bid for social currency" (emphasis on the blatant bias is my own)

    LOL exactly. I've never disabled notifications for an app so quickly.

    It's one or two strands of the spider web

    Yeah in NYC, particularly Manhattan. Should have mentioned that.

    Funny, I just called GEICO two nights ago to see if they could lower my rate because I just turned 25. They were reluctant at first, so I asked them if I could just cancel my insurance and said I'd move to another carrier, even though I've been otherwise happy with them. After putting me on hold for a while, I was

    I'm pretty sure that was unrelated to the (twin) towers collapsing. That was most likely just the tower being overloaded.

    Yeah, his views on huge government, irresponsible spending, and handouts are right in line with the DNC. Wait.. a... minute.

    I'm trying to find a source on this, but I'm having trouble. I know that my dad's phone did work, although if I recall correctly, the towers were pretty overloaded. Perhaps that was your issue? I remember finding out that Verizon was the only carrier NOT on the towers. Their tower was located on another building.

    Mr. Potato Head would be better than Obama. So, yes, yes you are right.

    Verizon.

    My thoughts exactly. Glad there's some free-thinkers on here, I was beginning to think it was all Obamabots.

    Maybe they should just ban people!

    I believe this is the exact one that I have: http://www.target.com/p/clip-lamp-black-includes-cfl-bulb/-/A-13576562

    I could buy a clip lamp from Target for $10-$20. Is the Luxo L1 really worth 10+ cheapo clip lamps? A lamp can only get so good. Stick a decent bulb (I use CFLs) in it and you're set.
