"I'm an accoustic acoustic man myself...."
If Nagy Vilmos was so inclined, he could play the fool unplugged.
I love electric (2) and acoustic guitars (3) and I even love xylophone (0).
Just wish that I could play them like, the masters or as I do in my dreams.

Having just read the I feel stupid thread, I was rewarded with a duet of epiphanies:
I am not alone in the occasional* tail-chase - in fact, I now feel like part of a community.
The fessing up in the thread posts explains all too clearly why the lounge is what it is
Thus, to our mutual credit and glory, we all wipe with but one hand!
* more than occasional, but I'll never admit it.

You can keep your hand well away from my wipe!

You just reminded me (or should I say, inspired me?) about an ecological breakthrough.
I'll allow you to invest in my plastic film bathroom tissue. Instead of flushing it away, simply squeegee it clean and hang up for the next person. We can have any number of colors and, of course, interesting textures. No-more break-through, either!
An outstanding idea and a bold stroke for environmentalism and the plastics industry.
Thanks!

Well, OK. I thought it would be a real hit on your side of the Atlantic, especially in France.

So about a dollar a share over current market? That's 10% near enough - I think that'll go through, with everyone who didn't jump out a window at the end of last week... Be interesting to know what Fairfax are considering doing with them.
Won't help the 4,500 poor sods who they are dumping though - or improve the morale of those that are left.

Fairfax is already the largest shareholder of BB stock, so they only pay on whatever the outstanding market shares are aside from what they hold.
In reality, this should be titled "Fairfax purchases $4.7B of failing tech in an attempt to mitigate losses". That's about what they are really doing, since they are the largest shareholder they stand to lose about that much as the stock plummets. Purchasing the company and taking it private will stop-gap the bleed, but in the end unless they have a solid plan to save the company (aside from offer 2 "high end" and 2 "entry level" phones, all they are doing is postponing the inevitable.
BB was big when people had business phones and personal phones, but now that they are mostly one and the same with employers opting to reimburse employees for usage rather than make them carry around second devices BB is falling behind because it really doesn't have many recreational uses. What they should really do is adopt Android or Windows for the new devices and jump back into the market as a new HTC, and stop trying to pigeon hole users into something that really doesn't have many third-party developers making the experience fluid (aka, new apps).

Have you ever debugged your app, asking yourself why it doesn't perform like it should just to find out that you haven't implemented the OnClick event of the Button which should call the method which is intended to make the app do what you want it to?
I just did  .
You know the world is going crazy when the best rapper is a white guy, the best golfer is a black guy, the tallest guy in the NBA is Chinese, the Swiss hold the America's Cup, France is accusing the U.S. of arrogance, Germany doesn't want to go to war, and the three most powerful men in America are named "Bush", "Dick", and "Colon."

Well, everybody brainfarts from time to time, so do not feel stupid. Plus, that one seems pretty obvious to debug.
