From my inbox: Whatever you give a woman, she will make greater. If you give her sperm, she'll give you a baby. If you give her a house, she'll give you a home. If you give her groceries, she'll give you a meal.. If you give her a smile, she'll give you her heart. She multiplies and enlarges what is given to her. So, if you give her any crap, be...
Heard this from a customer the other day, but he ended it, "So don't giver her any crap." It's funnier that way.

In my house you have to give me the groceries to get a meal, but you can give my wife flour and sugar and she'll give you back bliss in a cookie.

How true, and how soon us men forget...

Give the greats a sad song, they'll make it better - won't bore people w/my list

I love it. Sent it to my girlfriend. I know she is going to agree.

I am a woman ..... trying to give me some money and see what happens FIUUU! FIUUU! :-)

First comes the Wedding Ring then comes the Suffer-Ring ;-)
- Richard Bitting
@pallina60Loon LOL a massive exception to the rule
- Parvez Halim
@pallina60loon not an exception, still the rule. When a man gives a woman money, that is a small debt, which the woman "then multiples and enlarges what is given to her" :)
- Ken & Kiyomi
@ Parvez Halim: I do not think is exceptional. People prefer to think that the woman is sweet and helpful. Sometimes it is not so
- pallina60 Loon
@ ❦ ❦ Kiyomi & Ken: I have not talked to repay the money :-)

Someone please create a male counterpoint!
- ZuDfunck
For ZuDfunck: Whatever you give a man, he will make less. If you give him a musical instrument, he'll pawn it. If you give him a house, soon you will be homeless. If you give him groceries, he'll give you a mess.. If you give him a smile, he'll give you a grope. He reduces and diminishes what is given to him.

When did you start 'reading' your mail Leo? I had a lot to write to you for years but couldn't find a way to reach you. I didn't bother writing an e-mail since you repeatedly mentioned that you didn't read them at all :)

Am I the only one who thinks this quote is a bit male chauvinistic? The quote has a wrapper that appears to make women look great but underneath, it stereotypes women as a typical "wife" in a submissive male chauvinistic system. Again, my 2 cents based on a cursory reading on a hectic day.
- Krishnan Subramanian
Good point. Groceries and meal are chauvinistic, among others. Sorry, but the theme had good intent.
- Dan Barber
Aldrin himself critiqued the nation's space exploration strategy in a Washington Post op-ed piece Thursday, saying that, like Apollo, "this plan will prove to be a dead end littered with broken spacecraft, broken dreams and broken policies." He said that to rekindle pride in its program, the United States needs to embrace a vision that, for the moment, sounds impossible: a homestead on Mars.

About 3 months ago, I took my kids to the Griffith Observatory in LA for fun. We just happened to walk by a presentation being given by JPL's Mars Landing Project Manager. It was awesome to listen to someone so smart! After his presentation, he opened the stage for questions. I asked if we could send a person to Mars. He said there are some huge technical hurdles, one of which is the...

Mars is a hard problem.. and will cost buckets of money that we do not have. But we need to push on and work toward the goal. I've searched and cannot find a copy of Buzz's Unified Space Vision. Does anyone have a copy?
- Jeff
I can not wait to get my hands on Google Wave. I loved the presentation and could think of several opportunities within my company where this would be very beneficial already.

Something seems to be happening - the site is excruciatingly slow this morning. I'm hoping for "going live" and not just a slow down or outage.
- Chris Rogers
Working on installing mine now... The progress bar is nearly finished!
- aminorjourney
been on it for weeks and I gota say I like it, but the wait now continues until we have app developers updating their apps and getting push working!
- Kyle Saric
I still get the "2.2.1 is the current version".
- Sean Ryder
Update finished installing for me. Now iTunes is just backing up my iPhone.
- Troy Ryder
downloaded 3.0 for the touch, and it works great! nice to have landscape and copy and paste functionality
- Jon mclaughlin
Sean, unplug your phone, relaunch iTunes. I hear that works for some
- Dekz
Yeah, now where is an update from BeejiveIM and IM+ for push?
- Kevin Whalen
Productivity across the world just took a dive :-)
- Bryan Lyle
Kevin: their app store app was submitted for updates but it's still not in the store. I love BeeJiveIM too, and it's ran pretty weird on all the 3.0 betas.
- Dan Hendricks
Now I just need to figure out a way to get out of my Verizon contract so I can port over to At&T with a 3GS
- Jon mclaughlin
I'll be downloading my update for my iPod tonight at 5:30PM Eastern time. I'm counting the minutes!
- Mike Lewis
Have fun everyone. 3.0 is a blast. Been playing with the GM Seed for devs a couple of days now. Very nice upgrade!
- Jeremy Heslop
The GM seed and the now downloadable version has the same build number: 7A341
- David Jack Wange Olrik
Downloading mine too. Had to upgrade iTunes to 8.2 first ... annoying 'Updating Library' function taking a half hour before I can proceed to the 3.0 install.
- Dale Dietrich
Leo, have you seen AT&T has revised it's upgrade requirements. 3G owners who are up before the end of Sept can get standard prices. http://friendfeed.com/chilima...
- ChiliMac
Does anyone know if the 3GS will have capability of Blackberry Redirect? Can't afford to lose my work email but want to get an iPhone
- Jon mclaughlin
Anyone know if you can share the update file with another computer? Both me and the wife have iPhones and it seems silly for us both to download it?
- Jason Roseweir
4:27am here. 3rd attempt at downloading. keep getting an "unknown error" halfway through downloading. If it doesn't work this time, I'll take the laptop into work and try from there in a couple of hours.
