"round and round we go" said the parrot and jumped into the fan.

sorry, I forgot that. Of course, you are completely right.

I guess you are rich, then?

love the t-shirt. however, the link does not show it. I guess I have to sharpie it onto my own t-shirts then...

be nice. The cells actually do not create the mitochondria either (ok, you navigated your way around saying that, but I just call you out on it), because they are not part of the cell genome but carry their own DNA. But that's a bit hair-splitting for an article on The Giz. Let's all agree on that exercise increases…

"Chats with You as It Empties Your Account" - I googled that and it came up with "wife" as first reference, then "mistress" and "lover". What am I doing wrong? What is the correct search phrase?

yeah, one would think that the best protection against being robbed is not having anything worth to be robbed. However, you do not take into account greed, drugs and ease of access. And human stupidity, of course.

ummm, I'd rather have some artificial meat, thank you.

that body armour looks a bit frail. What's the story?

Eeehm, after dropping a phone in the loo, I'd guess, humidity would be one of my lesser problems...

Dear Sammy,

what's wrong with the Palm? I still keep my Centro around, just to remind me what a good implementation of a pen-based UI looks like. All those finger-pointing phones still can't hold a candle to it. There is a reason why pens came in human cultural history long after pointing at things with fingers and finger…

So, what you are saying is that I can finally have a full desktop OS on the iPad, and it's not even MacOS? Wake me up when I have the full desktop version of MacOS, with handwriting recognition on the iPad, and hopefully some expandable storage as well (SDXC, µSDXC).

my last computer to have a mouse was an Atari Mega ST2.

aha, so, "runner-up" is not an actual second place, more of a second category, as in "dead" and "evolutionary dead". Interesting. Fascinating subject.

"Where are the crown jewels?" - I'd say well done or toasted just about describes it sufficiently: 'Harper was "permanently disfigured" by the explosion'. Also smoking hot comes to mind... But this just covers the how. As to the where I guess, that could maybe still be inconclusive.

isn't one of the requirements for the Darwin Award actual and factual death?

so, what you are saying is that you didn't stand directly in the line of fire, but were hit by shot that had entirely lost its momentum? So, the range of that stuff seems to be horrible, like: shoot and careful not to drop any on your feet?

sorry, sometimes it's hard to distinguish between friend and foe here;-) I reckon I had problems navigating the logic of the syntax while feeling under fire - my bad.

It's not a picture of herself (I would say, although I do not have any hard evidence, apart from her other photos, since I don't know the woman), but it's one of the pictures she has posted on what seems to be her webstagram profile. Since someone had already posted that earlier I eschewed mentioning it to keep from…
