    Ummm, retina display, it's thinner, larger screen, better battery. I mean that's pretty much a complete overhaul of the physical product.

    Well I would've but I guess we both got caught in the awkwardness of waiting for the other one to initiate the suggestion. Plus you seem busy with visiting Finland, and you didn't say you lived in Stockholm.

    Tell you what, though, I was impressed with all the cheering spectators at the half-marathon.

    The biggest upgrade is 4g lte. Two years after most android phones. But still 4g is amazing compared to 3g.

    Even taking partial advantage of the phone's capabilities becomes nigh impossible when software updates are released. I started with an iPhone 3G, and by the time the 4 was released with the corresponding software update, I could hardly get a website to load in my browser with full signal strength and wifi connection. So while a 4 might be okay on iOS 6 for now, come next year when the next update is released, it'd make a better projectile than smartphone. The upside of getting the version that costs $100 more is that you're likely to get at least a year's more use out of it.

    Good point.

    Jaime Faith Edmondson almost makes me care about the Jets-Dolphins matchup.


    And, here's one where you can see her feet.

    OK, got a complaint that Ms. Sharapova looked a little too downsy in that first pic. Here's a good one:

    Can someone help me with the math from this article? http://finance.yahoo.com/news/where-the-47-percent-live.html

    According to the article 46.4% of US citizens did not pay federal taxes, but when they list the states with the most non-payers Mississippi tops the list at 44.5%. How can the collective total be higher than every individual state total? I don't think it's a case of Simpson's Paradox, so I'm stumped.

    So el husband and I are thinking about buying a home back in Alabama to rent out before we get there and to live in once we move. It would make the transition way easier. I have started looking through foreclosures in the area and there are actually some good deals to be had. We want to buy now also because they are building an Airbus manufacturing plant and I suspect that with the huge business and the flood of employees in the area that housing costs are going to jump.

    Luckily I have some pretty good resources at my disposal. My parents and sister still live in the area and can check properties for me, my other sister just recently went through the property purchasing process and probably had good advice for me, and my mom has accumulated many homes over the past decades that she rents out. Plus, we can get a wicked good rate through the VA. I am excited but terribly nervous.

    I keep looking at this and am similarly perplexed.

    The only thing I can come up with is that maybe they are matching different and disagreeing data sources for their overall and state-level numbers.

    Synthetic cherry smell is the worst.

    The cleaning company in our office decided to add these new pads in the urinals that react when piss hits them and release a cherry odor. Before, the urinals smelled like nothing. Now, the whole bathroom smells like cherry piss. Way to come up with a solution to a problem that didn't exist only to create an actual problem.

    When I was 17, I hit a skunk with my car and the smell was inescapably awful. So I grabbed the first scented pine tree I could find at the gas station, ripped off all of the plastic, and tossed it on the floor in the back seat. I later found out that it was cherry scented.

    If you were wondering how you could make unadulterated skunk smell even worse, just mix it with cherry scented anything. The car was undriveable for days.

    Cherry fixes nothing.

    Just read that, and without getting too political I'm so sick of republicans throwing nonsense like this around. Also, most of the pundits just flat out say '47% pay no taxes', instead of 'pay no federal income taxes'. At best it's an extremely misleading claim.

    Another annoying one is when they say something like "The top 5% pay 90% of the taxes." Gee, maybe it's because they make 98% of the money.
    I still haven't decided who I'm voting for, but I'm seriously thinking a lot of those pundits are running the party into the ground with the ridiculous shit they say. They need to come up with a better angle than claiming liberals are nothing but lazy crack smokers who want money for sitting on their ass.

    Anyway, hot sports chicks.

    There's so many in tennis it's hard to choose, but I'll settle on Ivanovic.

    Skewing or misrepresenting statistics is just weak shit in general. A piss poor way to form an argument.

    Not sure if this is it, but when they give the state by state percentages they are going by "Returns With No Income Tax Liability" without specifying (though heavily implying earlier) if they are federal or state income tax returns.

    Edit: Wait, I'm a moron, they're basing it on number of returns, not number of people or households. If you don't have any income you generally don't file.

    Ah, that might explain it. The non-filing thing would introduce a downward bias to the state-level numbers, right?
