"Sometimes when you look in his eyes you get the feeling that someone else is driving. " - David Letterman

***

"The word inflation appears to be the most commonly used economic term among the general public. Table I column 1 shows how often the word has been used, in comparison with other economic terms, based on a computer search of news stories in the ALLNWS (all news) section of the Nexis system, an electronic search system for English language news publications (and including some broadcasts) around the world. The word "inflation" appeared in 872,004 stories, far outnumbering the stories containing any other economic term. Only unemployment comes even close, with 602,885 stories. The term inflation even outranks the word "sex", for which Nexis ALLNWS produced only 662,920 stories."

    In the videos it takes about 10 seconds to pop what looks
    like about 7 kernels. 10 seconds no joy! 20, 30, 60 still
    no pop! So is it possible for a cell phone to have more power than a
    microwave oven? Or conversely, is it possible for a microwave oven to less powerful than
    a cell phone? Then why can cell phones run on batteries and microwave ovens have to pull into the wall?
