I agree, and I felt that way the first time. And the second time. And the third time. It gets old, and I just don't have time for it. (see comment)

iPod 2.1 Offers Promise For Friday's 'big' iPhone Update

Comment in News (6 diggs, 0 replies) - on 09/11/2008
Agreed. Updating my wife's BlackJack from WM5 to WM6 was quite a process. Update this, reboot, backup, reboot again, plug it in, unplug it, update another piece, etc. The directions were good enough, but it was a very bizarre upgrade. Apple makes it q … (see comment)

What is the best free email account? - Google's Gmail

Comment in News (2 diggs, 0 replies) - on 08/18/2008
Labels and filters FTW. I love that I can send/receive mail from all of my other sites (me@oneofmysites.com, me@anothersite.com) so I can have an "official" address for each site, but only need to go to one place to get all of my mails. I hate that you … (see comment)

10 Mispronunciations That Make You Sound Stupid

Comment in News (29 diggs, 5 replies) - on 08/07/2008
My favorite is people who say "I could care less", when what they (probably) mean is "I couldn't care less". I bust them on it every time. (see comment)

How many cheerleaders can cram into an elevator?

Comment in News (16 diggs, 0 replies) - on 08/07/2008
What a horrible answer to the question -- "apparently not 26". Wrong! Apparently you CAN cram 26 cheerleaders into an elevator, just not get them out very easily... (see comment)

NBC unveils fall lineup

Comment in News (8 diggs, 0 replies) - on 04/04/2008
Some bigwig at NBC had it out for this show. They put it at 10:00, but refused to count DVR viewing toward the ratings. WTH! Any late show it bound to have a higher-than-normal rate of DVR viewers, but they wouldn't count them at all. What a superb sh … (see comment)

I did that a few years ago. It wasn't quite like RISK, but was somewhat along those lines. I ended up giving it away to some of the active players so they'd keep developing it. http://www.gewar.net/ (see comment)
