@vlatro: The only thing I will say here is that you need to not call them Gizmondo. Gizmondo is a terrible gadget that ripped the name off Gizmodo and then did a bad job of a device.

@MrRainMan: There's only two C's before the Combo breaker. :P

In about five months or so, I won't be able to type something insulting about Australia without getting myself censored for life in my own country.

@mjt308: I typed an insult here, but suddenly my text disappeared and a huge popup came on the screen telling me that my typing had alerted the NSA and I am now banned from America.

@MrRainMan: I have my doubts as to if it ever went past screening before getting to Obama himself.

From what I know, even if Microsoft wanted to, they can't really do anything but co-operate, and the reason why they can't contact the groups themselves would be because that could be seen by the authorities as 'co-operating with the violator' or something like that. It's an awkward situation for Microsoft, but…

@makthai420: You're right, without the ground in the photo right at the front of the photo, you can't really tell how much sag there really is, which is why the photographer probably chose to do that to make it amazing.

@Gary_7vn: Agreed. I'd daresay given the way the base was burnt off, the fire probably burnt up the inside of what's left of the pole, which is why it's really light.

@danrosen: I couldn't help but promote you. That picture cracked me up for minutes.

@Jay Phelps: Yep, overanalyzing. Like CaseyG says in the thread below, this has been resized too many times, otherwise you can't accuse English Russia of photoshopping this.

@mohkahn: Meebo ([meebo.com)] provides an excellent web interface for MSN. You should check that out.

Like the Victorian bushfires here, I cannot picture the process of rebuilding life out of nothing after this, starting out of pretty much nothing.

@IphtashuFitz: You speak words of wisdom. As someone who's gotten their private pilot's licence, even on tiny 5-man craft I feel a lot safer with two pilots than one. I can do solo easily, but it's not easy and errors are, and have been, easily made.

Oh you Americans with your relaxed conveniences...in ten years when we finally have Twitter SMS, y'all will be onto brain Facebook and brain Twitter.

@quikboy: I don't like the Samsung logo myself. For some reason in the back of my mind it makes a good looking product look cheap with that logo on it. But again, I can't make sense out of my own theory.

@schunniky: Right, seeing as there is a shockingly overwhelming amount of response to my question (thank you everyone!) I don't know who to reply to thank y'all and speak, so I'll just reply to myself.

@Two Dogs One Bone: You win most creative explanation.

I never understood the third rail. It seems so much safer to have overhead wiring like we do. Although I'm not sure if it's that easy to get electrocuted given grounding and all.

Today I discovered the new iPod Touch screen is actually smaller than the screen on my older iPod Touch. By the tiniest bit.

Totally inserting a Scribe paragraph into my essay which I'm writing tomorrow and see how far I get. Oh wait, no I won't.
