[quote=windsoc]So are England out of the World Cup?[/quote]

[quote=windsoc][quote=Austruck][quote=windsoc]I am genuinely amazed how many places in the US have names from the UK. I know it makes sense but I just never realised how many there were.[/quote]
There are tons of them on the east coast, obviously. Pennsylvania (where I am from) is a strange mix of English place names, German names, and Native American names.[/quote]

Another thing the stuns me is the amount of repeats, there are tons of Manchester's and a few Liverpools.I love looking things up about the states even if it does make me feel uninformed and uneducated,[/quote]

[quote=The Sci-Fi Slob]It's nerve-racking waiting for England to loose.[/quote]

[quote=windsoc]I do like the look of the Amazon Fire and I would like to play with it *sniggers*, the camera looks stunning. The only thing I would say though is in reference to the keynote. I don't know if anyone else watched it but the speaker look bored and uninterested. Take that Apple!![/quote]

[quote=The Rodent]Heh!

A 90 minute avi... pretty smooth. Discovering new techniques on Photoshop.[/quote]

[quote=Austruck]Ooh, I didn't realize it was an AT&T phone. That's our carrier. :)  Not that I'm in the market for a new phone -- hubby just got me my first smartphone for Christmas. But, if I were, I'd look at an Amazon phone, for sure. Some people are Apple fanboys or fangirls. I'm an Amazon fangirl.  :)[/quote]

[quote=John McClane]In regards to the new and bada** Amazon Fire Phone: why does AT&T always get the cool phones? Their coverage BLOWS in my area.[/quote]

[quote=John McClane]Also, I mostly like to write dark stuff, and the dark stuff really takes it out of you.[/quote]
