Re: Remembering Farrell’s in Montclair - http://www.insidesocal.com/davidal...
"Years before I met my wife, her family went to the Farrell's in Montclair one evening, and her brother took up the challenge to eat a "pig's trough" of ice cream. He successfully ate the ice cream, but much of it ended up on the Montclair Plaza parking lot afterwards. While we're thinking about that period, the area where Applebee's now stands today used to host a 50's place with a dance floor. Can't remember the name, however..." - John E. Bredehoft

Re: Augmented reality app makes Japanese newspaper more engaging for kids - http://www.springwise.com/...
"The ending of the video says that certain companies prepared ads accessible to both parents and children. Does this mean that special preparation is required to create articles that can be rendered kid-friendly by the app?" - John E. Bredehoft
Re: Hard Drive: 14 Killer Features of the Bill Gates Condom - http://www.esarcasm.com/24133...
"You forgot the most important feature. Unlike other manufacturers who have closed systems and arduous rules ("don't hold it like that"), the manufacturers of the Gates products promise an easily accessible architecture that easily accommodates add-ons from third (and, if you're really into experimentation, fourth) parties. CPO Steve Ballmer has even produced a video in which he expresses his...um, commitment to those DEVELOPERS that will produce compatible products. And I understand that he got really sweaty during the making of that video." - John E. Bredehoft

"I haven't seen the post in question, but (see my comment above) I have no problem with a post that discusses wardrobe essentials - as long as it's not implied that women need to worry about wardrobe, but men do not." - John E. Bredehoft

"Your "context is important" message is an important one, even in the examples that you describe as appropriate. What if I say that I like your blazer, and that I like Joanna's blazer, but I never tell Rob that I like his blazer? Hmm..." - John E. Bredehoft
