Yes, I know it's been over 184 years since we signed the Adams-Onis treaty but, well, how can I say this nicely? It's just not working out for us. (pause)
I think it may be defective, and we'd like to return it. (pause)
We have the original receipt, yes. (pause)
I was afraid you'd say that Disneyland voided the warranty, but since we've been paying for the extended NATO warranty, I thought you'd make an exception this time. (pause).
I'd like to speak with your supervisor, please. (pause).
OH, yes, I forgot you were the *King.* Then let me speak to your wife. (click).
Kill a line that the cursor is on: just like any Mac text editor or text field, MS Word included...
Shift-down-arrow (highlight from the cursor to the end)
Then you can hit return or delete to clear the contents.

10 x 8 x 8 cm is like a baseball's size. It's 10 x 8 x 0.8 cm, I'm sure.

and the authors discarded the negative root.
Then again, you wouldn't know if the quantum computer has crashed until you opened its case to see.
Your reply to my reply to your reply to my comment was the lowest highest low point of my day.

Call Dentist.
Sell all Florida real estate.
Pick kids up after soccer.
Mow lawn.
