San Fran’s Mayor ushered in the Gay-ity. He looks gay to me. Do straight guys clap like that? Regardless, conservatives are eating their shorts because the gays are going to transform this country into a gay hell where everyone must be gay or go to the gas chambers. Yeah, that’s what the libs want to protect, gays and terrorists!!!

Back in the day when one would specify freestanding pedestal desks for secretaries, they would have an optional "modesty panel" so that visitors and co-workers couldn't look at their knees or worse. I wonder how one acts when the whole upper body is encased in this wonderful shed/office/house on legs designed by Soojin Hyun. You certainly won't go to work in your bathrobe.

When the vehicle neared, a signal was sent through the air to the telephone using magnetic fields. It could be heard near the other end of the wire through another phone.

This is one of the stranger assumptions made about text messaging pricing. Via the NY Times The Lede Blog.
"Nigel Bannister, a space scientist at the University of Leicester in Britain, has concluded that sending a text message costs at least four times as much as transmitting scientific data from the Hubble telescope."
Dr Nigel Bannisters calculations were used for the Channel 4 Dispatches program The Mobile Phone Rip-Off.
He worked out the cost of obtaining a megabyte of data from Hubble and compared that with the 5p cost of sending a text.
He said: The bottom line is texting is at least 4 times more expensive than transmitting data from Hubble, and is likely to be substantially more than that.
