Here's one that has a thousand answers and none at all: what, exactly, is the whole nine yards referring to?
Thank god I am oblivious to the opinions of others while caught in the blinding splendor of my own cleverness.

I believe that was the size of King Kong's wiener.

From my understanding, SIRI does not know shit.

Siri is out of beta now with 6.0 and is surprisingly knowledgable.
Now granted, if you garble your words or speak with a heavy accent you probably won't get the results you seek.

I love Siri! So much that I might get an iphone. Although I don't like the cost. We have so much fun with Siri on my son's phone. He can make her talk with different accents and in differnet languages. It's cool!

If you don't need a new phone SIRI is also now available on the iTouch (fifth generation) and the iPad (with 6.0).

SIRI's answer: The flight helmets were worn to provide warmth and to secure the pilots' radio receivers and googles in place.

I am due for an upgrade this month OBK. I probably won't get the iphone though. I can get the Samsung Windows phone for $50 versus $200.

My husband got me the Iphone 5 for our anniversary...I love it, but I was just as happy with my Droid.

Maybe you shouldn't upgrade right away, make them beg. They know your contract is up and they want to keep your business so there's a chance they will use something big to entice you. That's how I got my Torch for a fraction of its original price.

I hate to wait Duchess. ugh. I am not going to run to the phone store the day my upgrade becomes available but I am not going to wait months either. Besides the iphone is so popular they are sold out around here so I doubt I will get any deals.

That's how you get your new phones? You go directly to an area store? I've never purchased a phone in that manner, I've always done it online & it's overnighted at their expense.

I just usually go to the AT&T store at the mall and get my phone. I could order it online and have it sent to me too. I like them to transfer all my contacts and stuff over to the new phone though.
