Isn't it weird how many Internet startups try to come up with names that sound like "Yahoo" or "Google"? A nonstarter for me. - Sean McBride
tried this. not good if you're trying to determine which neighborhood in a specific city you want to live in - eg. where the hipsters live. may be ok if you're looking to move cross country + aren't familiar with a city + its suburbs. - Kevin Gough
How many times have I seen pregnant man stories now? Even a supposed documentary... All turned out to be bogus. I nearly ignored this before checking the date. Yet despite apparently being real, it's not really a big story... he was born female. - Tanath
If "he" wasn't born a man, it doesn't count in my book. And men just don't have the physical stuff needed to support a baby, so even with some huge leap in technology in the future, even if it happened, whoever carried the baby wouldn't actually or technically be a "man". - The Kid
"A gourmet food stand. Had the pork shank, avocado soup w/cilantro + jalapeno peppers. Tasted the cured salmon (not quite lox) sandwich. I would have liked a bit bolder flavors from the pulled pork…" - Kevin Gough
"Fine. Good views of ATL, decent color palate for the room. Kinda cool to be in the Starbucks line behind CNN news anchors, complete w/make-up + mics/ear pieces all over. The concierge was very…" - Kevin Gough
I've always been curious about people who support impeaching bush -- aren't you concerned at all that it would essentially lead directly to a McCain presidency? Wouldn't it be cutting off your nose to spite your face? - david hammer
I believe the idea is to impeach both Bush and Cheney, and so essentially lead directly to a Nancy Pelosi presidency. - Tudor Bosman
Right, but by the time Bush and Cheney were impeached, tried, and (hypothetically) convicted it would be at least November 2008, if not later, so the gesture is purely symbolic. In the meantime, such a strategy would almost certainly make independents substantially more likely to break for McCain, which would be a problem in such a tight race. - david hammer
Constitution before party. If it becomes routine to violate the constitution, the country is fucked whether Dems or GOP rule. Also: why is it conventional wisdom that impeachment of Bush leads to a GOP victory? In the two historical precedents, the party of the impeached president lost big time in the following election. - Neil Kandalgaonkar
The first point is hard to argue with -- I'm just inquiring as to the pragmatic aspects. As to the second point, Dems gained big in the '98 election almost certainly because of impeachment (see wikipedia). Either way, though, it's a small sample size -- more to the point, I can't envision the profile of the voter who wouldn't be voting for Obama unless Bush was impeached. I can easily see the centrist-types who would decide the Dems are deranged and choose not to vote for a democrat. - david hammer
That's a good point re: '98, but remember, the Republicans were prosecuting a much-loved president. Also, except for the GOP base, few people thought the case had any merit. Voter revenge was predictable. Bush's approval ratings are among the lowest ever recorded, and Cheney's are lower still. If the impeachment was conducted honorably, I think that most voters might approve. - Neil Kandalgaonkar
One last point and then I'm done :) Even with Bush's low approval ratings, nearly every poll on the matter, no matter how optimistically phrased (i.e. if X were true, and Y were true, could you maybe support impeachment) shows a definite majority of the country still opposes impeachment. Again, this isn't to say impeachment is justified or not, just that there's some real evidence to suggest voters might not approve of even an honorably-conducted impeachment. - david hammer
let's write off the last months of this presidency + focus on winning '08 elections. - Kevin Gough
"I was hoping for a triumvirate of great Yelp recommendations in ATL, but unfortunately was let a bit astray with Paschai's. In all, it was food that tasted like what it was supposed to be but no…" - Kevin Gough
"Took the intermediate Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga class from Susan on Wed @ 5:30. Only one other person in the class - what a treat. Susan had a good sense of timing when instructing us to move through…" - Kevin Gough
"Location: In a seemingly abandoned part of downtown. Lots of vacant storefronts + people loitering w/beer cans, etc. Ambiance: They did a nice job making the interior clean and modern - keeping…" - Kevin Gough
"Serviceable - small rooms + bathrooms. Beds/pillows decent quality. Fairly utilitarian lobby, meeting and conference areas. Central locale. A safe place to stay in Dallas if you're there for work.…" - Kevin Gough
I'm so ready to hit the Apple store in University Village here in Seattle. - Brian Daniel Eisenberg
you have to let everyone know if they're in stores today! - Charles Hudson
This is DEFINITELY not the day for an african guy to watch for social media ;-) - directeur
I just walked downstairs to the Apple store here at Town Square in Vegas. They were frank...said they have nothing. No line, nothing new to sell today. They seemed...relieved. - Jim Stanger
Those are some cheap prices! $199-$299 starting July 11th. Crazy. - Carolina Velis
much-needed perspective from the real-world: my soccer mom friend is incredulous that I'm annoyed about the date. Says she: "I can definitely wait that long!" - Carla Thompson
Nice thing about the July 11 delay is that it will give me a few weeks to sell my Treo for a decent amount. (If I'm lucky, >$200) - Dan Byler
They will have to stand in line then till the 11th of July, good luck with that. - Gerard van Schip
Jobs sounded like he said pricing "no more than $199 in 22 countries." Sounds like room for carrier discounts to me. Though why if still only available through a single carrier in a market? - Eric Johnson
There will be streaming video on the iPhone because the people at QIK told me that QIK for the 3G iPhone will be out VERY soon. - Tokyo Dan
Its all marketing...get the news crews out twice. Today and July 11th. Nice Steve! - Jay Martin
Bzzt, no go. We all have to wait until July 11, just like everyone else. :-( - David Sifry
