@ Joe. Thanks. Slight embarrassment, yes. But not the end of the world just an error (in my judgment).

The more I thought about it the dumber it sounds: ~100m = ~30-story building. Oh well. I just could have sworn that when this first happened (during the Titan’s game) the height that was talked about was much higher than 90 feet. Oh well. Should be interesting to see how many times the board will be hit during the season.
@sitruc -- I stand corrected. It just seems like 90 ft is not all that high, especially when they want a 5+ sec hang time on a punt. Oh well.
Ummm, are you sure it's 90 feet? You may want to check that one. Seriously...it's 90 meters, closer to 300 feet.
Gents: Thanks for the laugh. Glad you enjoy history lesson regarding the native people and their crazy pronouncations of places.

Thanks the podcasts.
Still having trouble with Hauppauge, NY? :) Origin is Native American, not German. If you really care, which you do not; go here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hauppauge%2C_New_York

"At the headwaters of the Nissequogue River it derives its name from the Native American term for 'overflowed land'."

I used to live in Hauppauge, NY and there was another translation. It was thought that it was Native American for "sweet waters", so much so that there is a restaurant there with Sweet Waters as its name.

There you have it.
Silver please
sure, why not?
So, 1 in 5000. I like the odds.
Yeah, 1 in 4000. So you are saying I have a chance, Alright!
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm heading to university next year, and I've purchased a MacBook. I'm also taking my four year old desktop, just in case I'm left with no computers when the MacBook is being repaired or whatnot. With only two USB ports on a MacBook, I want a Bluetooth mouse. Budget is about $100, and of course, it needs OS X support. Thanks for the help!"
