FYI, most birds are NOT vegetarian/herbivores. Birds of prey eat meat. Aquatic birds eat fish and other sea creatures. Most other birds eat insects, worms, grubs, etc., in addition to seeds and fruit. Birds that are strictly herbivores, such as hummingbirds, are in the minority.

Try skipping a raise for two years then see how grateful you are for 3%.

Being fired for mentioning a code name seems pretty insignificant compared to going to federal prison for it.

@chlkaufman: I don't think you looked very carefully. The fonts on the signs do not match what's on the screen, and there is a delay between when we are shown the sign and when it shows up on the iPhone.

FYI, you can program pauses on pretty much all mobile phones, not just smartphones.

@GranMastaB614: Move from top left corner then down diagonally. Top left corner is 1. Next diagonal is 1 and 2 (=3). Third is 3, 2, and 5 (=10). Fourth is the peak with 6, 6, 5, and 4 (=21). Keep descending until hitting 24 at seventh place.

@unimus: Grid it.

@GranMastaB614: User error. Just looking at your beginning and ending values, I see you got the wrong products for 1x1 and 6x4. You should also have seven values, not five. Here's what the grid should look like:

@GranMastaB614: Sorry, but that must be user error. Just ran through 8763 x 9484 and got it right after correcting an addition error. Have also found that drawing a grid works better than counting lines when dealing with large values. For 8763 x 9484, I lined up the digits outside a 4x4 grid, entered the products in…

@hspevolved: I understood. That is why I specified I would *drag* through my morning in order to help my lady.

@GranMastaB614: It does. I just did 3079 x 1800 as challenged by themightyspitz. Helps if you draw an empty loop in place of the zero in 3079 and know your basic times table (faster than counting 72 dots).

To understand the method, think of it in terms of geometry (sorry, if you don't understand geometry, you are SOL).

@Alex Brewer: Tell that to the dinosaurs.

@hspevolved: RE: 9 - I will gladly drag through my morning in order to help the woman in my life start her day more energetically and positively.

Star Wars. One of my first memories is of watching it in at the drive-in.

@GetOutOfBox: How do you know I didn't invent the concept of non-conformity? Is that what the man told you?

@Svirfneblin: Dude, you wouldn't know silly if it bit you in the ass (or replied to you in an intentionally silly and ironic manner).

@Svirfneblin: Dude, you wouldn't know silly if it bit you in the ass (or replied to you in an intentionally silly and ironic manner).

@Vinnie Vidivici: You think we need two government agencies with the equipment and experts necessary to regulate radiation-emitting devices?

@Svirfneblin: It's only silly because you're letting the man define the meaning of conforming for you. Non-conformists define words for themselves, just like bonneyt has done in an ironic statement of non-conformity. You'll always be conforming with someone except when you claim you'll always be conforming with…
