Obviously you're not one of the cool kids. It's the hip trendy thing now to grossly exaggerate the price of a cup of coffee at Starbucks to show how cool you are.
Me, sometimes I'll grab a cup of coffee or a Chai or a snack cake or something because there is a Gamestop and a Wal Mart nearby and I happen to already be in town shopping. Sadly, sometimes I need a caffeine fix when I am away from Mr. Coffee.
Granted, I'm drunk enough right now to think I have two monitors (I don't), but that doesn't make any sense to me in the context of what I'm replying too.
Generally speaking, when you use the phrase "give you the benefit of the doubt", you don't use it in a sentence where you are obviously not giving them the benefit of the doubt.
At best, it's just an incorrect statement.
You'll want that phone to be able to play Half Life 3 and give you blowjobs too, right?
Mind you, most actual dedicated cameras you see on the shelves don't seem to take 10MP pictures (and I've never seen a compelling argument for the average digital camera user needing more than 5MPs anyways; the improvement for each extra megapixel is relatively marginal), and those tend to be bigger than mobile phones anyhow.
As far as phone companies that let you grab photos off your phone with a USB cable: Helio phones seem to come with this feature built-in (there's a USB Mass Storage mode which turns the phone into a big ugly thumbdrive, and you just grab the photos out of the directory and drag them onto your computer), and my LG VX8350 has a similar feature. Of course, Verizon wants $30 for the USB cable and and music management software in order for you to make the actual physical connection.
I didn't seem to have a problem just MMSing the pictures off of the Verizon phone (I can't remember if I tried it with the Helio Ocean or not), but then you'll need a texting plan for that.
I'm reminded of something a hisotory professor mentioned to me a year or two back: Back in the days of the Roman Empire, Britain was renowned for the quality of grapes it produced, owing to the warm sunny weather typical of England.
Basically, the Dark Ages coincided with widespread cooling of the climate in Europe, as well as the political and social breakdown we all know and love that time period for. The temperature drop meant fewer crops would grow, and thus less quality food to go around, which probably only made things worse at the time.
Dunno if global warming would mean England is primed to be a move and shaker in the grapes and olives industry though.
Someone at MIT got bored and supposedly proved that tinfoil hats actually amplify the effectiveness of radio waves in the UHF range, those frequencies most often used by government agencies in the US.
Does Valium show up in a urine drug test? Cause it seems to me that that sort of thing would probably come up in many situations where a polygraph would be used...
On an unrelated topic, I talked to a CIA recruiter at a job fair, and he mentioned that the polygraph was required (at least at the time) for people wishing to join the CIA. He said that it wasn't so much that the polygraph ever indicated anything useful, so much that anyone who refused to take it could be summarily removed from the application process, the assumption being that if they refused to take the test, then they CERTAINLY had something they wanted to hide from the CIA (making them a poor candidate for employment, for obvious reasons).

Was it extra for the recycled cup? Like, if I get one made from virgin tree pulp, will that knock a bit off the price?

*ahem* The proper terminology is "Remotely Piloted Vaccuum" (RPV) ;-)

In that case, I'd have to see his badge before I lowered my window for him.

Heh, an HD-DVD packed full of movie trailers included with the player would be the awesomest thing ever.
