I sort of have to wonder, though - is this the kind of excess of capitalism that inspires envy around the world, or the sort of thing that makes people want to enroll in flght school just so they can learn to "fly straight?"

One Billion Apps
I'm not into that whole cell phone thing - something that used to be a good idea and is now pretty much just the height of pretension - but the iPhone isn't bad. It's not quite as old as Jackson, arriving at the end of June 2007 rather than at the beginning, and in those couple of years, users of the iPhone have downloaded close to a billion apps for their adorable little fruit phones. Apple has a countdown ticker (okay, it's counting up, not down - but who ever heard of a "countup?") posted on their website, and they're giving away some spiffy stuff to the person who downloads the billionth app.

that "cute little fruit phone" is the mark of the beast no doubt...i personally can't wait until they have the ibrain and i can just implant a chip into my head that connects me straight to the internet. then i will never have to talk to anybody else and i can live in my own little world.
viva la matrix, kids...
