or you could buy a player with what seems like a better set of specs for about the same price...

That does sound cool especially considering the shape, size and functionality of the Ponos player. 
WHAT?

Fans sue Boise arena because ?large? beer is same size as ?regular? (video)


In a lawsuit that is going to prompt measuring experiments among members of the beer-drinking segment of the sports-going public ? which is to say, almost all of it ? hockey fans in Idaho contend that they were the victims of fraud when they were sold a $7 beer that purportedly is larger than a $4 beer.

Regardless of the finding that the two beers were the same size, the odd thing to me was that the 16 oz beer is $4 and the 20 oz beer is $7. It's like you're paying $3 for an extra 4 ozs. Why not just but two 16 oz beers for $8?

'The Walking Dead' family friendly edited version coming to broadcast

http://insidetv.ew.com/2014/03/19/the-walking-dead-broadcast/

Translation: The characters will wander around aimlessly, occasionally run away from zombies and then discuss their feelings over a campfire.  Oh wail that's the current season of The Walking Dead or Revolution as the article points out.

Maybe their wife limits how much they are allowed to drink in a day.

"According to a report on Al Jazeera, terror suspect Abu Zubaydah was the only prisoner to be subjected to all 10 enhanced interrogation methods...[including being] shackled by his wrists to the ceiling of his cell and subjected to an endless loop of loud music...the music used to batter the detainee's senses was by the Red Hot Chili Peppers."

translation . . . i wasnt as successful or huge or sold as many albums or filled as many seats or made an lasting impact, like they did, so they must, indeed, suck.

One of the two new Walmart locations in D.C. will change a sign that informs English speakers they may check out 25 items and Spanish speakers they may check out 20.
