      - Whoa. Hmm. Well, if it's still bleeding tonight when I change the bandage, I will consider this. -- nm - Dr.Vermin Sep 3, 09:40 3

Not a bad haul for my first BOC. - not2fast Sep 3, 09:26 6
- nice! take a picture for posterity! - JaxSean Sep 3, 09:29 5
  - Nope. It has a special connector. Probably only fits the nano. -- nm - not2fast Sep 3, 09:33 4
    - But the nano has a normal jack. Mine recent gen does. -- nm - lileve Sep 3, 09:35 2
      - I believe these were specically designed so that the nano hands from the lanyard cords and thus uses the dock connector - JD Sep 3, 09:49 1

- Chevy Volt can charge off of a household outlet, correct? -- nm - znufrii Sep 3, 09:28 11
  - I believe it charges off both regular 110 and higher capacity 220 dryer outlets, but don't expect it to charge fast. -- nm - Mop (221 lbs) Sep 3, 09:39 2
    - more importantly, can it charge off a regular wall outlet, or does it need a charging station wired to one of those circuits? - znufrii Sep 3, 09:42 1
      - According to this Wiki page, it is a standard wall outlet - JaxSean Sep 3, 09:49
  - I'm guessing if you can't run your dryer off a standard outlet, you're not going to charge a car -- nm - oblique Sep 3, 09:32 6
    - Uh, what year is it? -- nm - Spawn Sep 3, 09:38 5

        Hmm. I guess I was thinking 3-prong = normal. My bad. -- nm - Spawn Sep 3, 09:49
        
        I was going by what the article was speaking of. I really have no idea what my dryer uses -- nm - oblique Sep 3, 09:41
  - I don't know, but "and 2,600 free chargers for Chevrolet Volt buyers" makes me think not. -- nm - JaxSean Sep 3, 09:30

  - This is another good dad book... -- (link) - Dr.Vermin Sep 3, 09:27
  - The Expectant Father was worth a quick read for me. My wife became really opposed to the What to Expect books -- nm - prayformojo Sep 3, 09:21

- here's the deal: its well structured in that Desean is the best player in the deal and Portis is the worst. - TFox Sep 3, 08:58 6
  - up until a week ago, I did not even realize Portis still had a job. nm -- nm - groiny Sep 3, 09:02 3

    - "posts are", not "post is" -- nm - Roger More Sep 3, 09:15 1
      - Add "... in a Batman voice." And you are pretty much there. -- nm - Spawn Sep 3, 09:16
  - fan fic is fan fiction, it is the stories that fans write about the shows/people they like. - Spawn Sep 3, 09:02 8
