@Prawo Jazdy and The Velocity Trumpets: I've been with T-Mobile since the Voicestream days, and I can honestly say that—with the exception of certain elevators which seem to be dead zones for all phones—I have NEVER had a call drop on my end. Bring on the T-Mo-iPhone!

Aw...the "Doctor Who" clip cuts right before the best bit.

@mias69: Would a "part-time genius" be someone who is always a genius, but only gets paid for it on a part-time basis, or someone who is only a genius some of the time and is relatively thick and common the rest of the time?

"Once readers could make compulsive book purchases, Kindle sales took off."

The Doctor Who finale still hasn't aired here? WTF is BBC America waiting for?

I was well out of college before I figured out that "Ice Capades" was a pun on the word "escapades." For close to 25 years, I sort of wondered what a "capade" was, but never bothered to check.

@JackEhrbar: They're perfect for jogging or working out. No screen to worry about, no moving parts to break, easy to clip onto clothing and light as a feather.

@jinlee: The new one—graphite shell, improved contrast, lower price—just started shipping today.

Where have I seen this before? Oh, right...

@Tyrunn: I've never seen it before, but I assumed it meant "Restricted Viewing - Age 16 and up."

@MajesticTrout: That's similar to the "Panoramic" setting on most HD TVs. It's almost more annoying then just stretching the image.

@bluehinter: Well, in fairness, July IS only a week away...

@The Alpha & The Omega: And don't forget my favorite part: stockpiling those 1 or 2 minute songs for the end of each side when you could only get to 43 1/2 minutes.

@dirigoDIGITAL: Sure. Because the success of the iPod led to dozens of other successful MP3 players, all of which sell in the millions. Like, um...well there's the...er...

How about "dropping dead from heat exhaustion"? Is that a good alternative to running your air conditioning?

@Nudemanatee: It was only on for (literally) about 2 months.

I loved this show when it was on. I still hum that theme song once in a while.
