    - I was going to say "fair and balanced", but she has an opinion, so maybe "even handed" -- nm - TWuG Feb 17, 08:53
- Who's Rachel Maddow? (Hopefully "who's" only counts as one word even though it a contraction of two.) -- nm - Cuzzin Todd Feb 17, 08:42

      - *slaps self* I mean debt. Half-a-trillion debt. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Feb 17, 09:04
  - I'm skeptical it could ever happen with Canadian nationalism the way it is, but in May 2005, our dollar was a lot weaker as global tender. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Feb 17, 08:45 4
    - Any currency union would be dominated by the US. I wonder whether (if geography were different) Canada would join the euro? -- nm - Roger More Feb 17, 08:49
    - that was five years ago, so i'm not sure what difference that supposedly makes now...nm, - x Feb 17, 08:49 2
      - Oh, don't get me wrong. I agree we'd be foolish to tie it now. Just adding the context of when the report was from. -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Feb 17, 09:00 1
        
        ah, that makes sense...nm - x Feb 17, 09:04

      - it would be real easy for Oprah to smother someone -- nm - zork Feb 17, 08:34
      - Hopefully I can take that bastard Dr Phil with me. -- nm - Beaker Feb 17, 08:32 1
        
        Dr Phil is a virus feasting on America's soul. -- nm - Loyola Feb 17, 08:34

SITWAP: Hiker who fell into Mt St Helens crater has been found dead. -- (link) - loosilu Feb 17, 08:04 10

camera peeps. Tell me if this is okay. I've been so out of the loop with p&s. -- (link) - CQ Feb 17, 07:55 6
- I'm always concerned about refurb, but other than that it seems a fairly good intro camera to do underwater photog. - decline Feb 17, 08:15 2
  - that's what I'm thinking and the site says it's "refurbished" because camera stores closed. They say the cameras are new in their boxes -- nm - CQ Feb 17, 08:27 1
    - also, I'm only using it for the cruise when I snorkel and scuba. -- nm - CQ Feb 17, 08:29

How the fuck did I just get a tweet from FoxEffingNews? I'm not follwing them. -- nm - mara Feb 17, 07:55 14
- Wow, I don't think I've ever seen mara so upset. -- nm - landbeck Feb 17, 08:06 1
  - :-) -- nm - mara Feb 17, 08:09
- But we're following *you*, mara... -- nm - FoxeffingNews si Feb 17, 07:56
- The tweet has the word "featured" under it. Effers. Either it's Twitter force-feeding me tweets I don't want, or Digsby. Fuckers. -- nm - mara Feb 17, 07:56 9
  - Those bastards! Giving you free software and then wanting to make a little money! Fuckers -- nm - oblique Feb 17, 08:10 1
    - I'm in favor of them making money, and I'm okay with tweets from other sources. I don't want tweets from Fox any more than I want tweets from the KKK. -- nm - mara Feb 17, 08:27
  - Ooh, probably digsby. Have you tried Brizzly? -- nm - JaxSean Feb 17, 07:57 6
    - Brizzly doesn't do Gmail chat, or any other IM, does it? -- nm - mara Feb 17, 07:59 5
      - No, I don't think so. Just twitter and Facebook streams. - JaxSean Feb 17, 08:00 4
        
        Digsby is essential to me. I get email alerts, IMs, and statuses. -- nm - mara Feb 17, 08:03 3
        
        Ah. I don't IM. - JaxSean Feb 17, 08:05 2
        
        I even need IM alerts for work. Digsby is just about perfect. -- nm - mara Feb 17, 08:07 1
        
        Digsby, as a software product, is rather brilliant and quite useful. As a company, it borders on heinous. -- nm - Beryllium Feb 17, 08:33
- Retweet? I don't love the new format of retweets. - JaxSean Feb 17, 07:56
Figure Skating is the NBA of the Olympics for me. - JaxSean Feb 17, 07:55 16

      - I think he got tears in the hard drive. nm -- nm - groiny Feb 17, 08:53
    - It is in the mail (or maybe arrived now). -- nm - Spawn Feb 17, 08:33 1
      - ...[*to* them] -- nm - Spawn Feb 17, 08:34
- I think it's fine, but I think the focus on it is waaaaaaaay overblown. -- nm - loosilu Feb 17, 07:59
- I have not watched one moment of any Olympic event yet. - groiny Feb 17, 07:58 4
  - did you guys play Halo last night? - JaxSean Feb 17, 07:59 3
    - I will probably be on tonight for a bit as well. nm -- nm - groiny Feb 17, 08:02 1
