Sleeve buttons aren't so bad. You don't need an exact match. What peeves me is when they get one of the collar buttons.

in A Cold Compress for Status Fever on Will Wilkinson
Actually, there can be more than one best jazz guitariist in Tucson, because jazz is a range of music. Just off the top of my head, I would suggest comparing Wes Montgomery and John McLaughlin.

"Long before you finish your calculation, you'll get a call from the electric company asking you to stop."

That would be better than being arrested and charged with violating the law of large numbers.

You folks should come to Wisconsin for your septum surgery. They use badgers here instead of wolverines. Not exactly gentle, but less persistant.

in From Luxury Item to Disposable Good: The Amazing $29 DVD Player on The Technology Liberation Front
Actually, DVDs can be a whole lot cheaper than that. I just bought one with "The Giant Gila Monster" (which I love because the heroes are kids with hotrods) plus another horror movie for $1.00 at Target. Wal-Mart has a similar selection at the same price, stuff like a version of "White Fang" with a brown German Shepherd miscast in the title role.

It isn't only the "digital divide" which is made irrelevant by these price decreases. When a commodity like a DVD player drops from $69 to $29, that counts against inflation, but because it wasn't a commodity at $1000, the real drop isn't counted.
