Grow it. As it stands, my facial hair is patchy and terrible and takes forever to grow. I regularly shave only twice a week and no one is the wiser. I’m part of a very elite club with other gentlemen including Keanu Reeves, Brad Pitt and Mark Wahlberg.
This review embodies what I think about most App Store customers.
In what universe is $1.99 or $4.99 or even the combined total of $6.98 a “rip off”?
I understand people are cheapskates. I get that. But your cheapness doesn’t mean hard-working developers should give away their applications for free or at a cost which doesn’t pay them fairly for their time and effort. And, further, your cheapness should not be used as the main point in your 1-star review.
The Long-Rumored Apple iPad
I made a joke on Twitter last night:
If Apple makes Bing the default search engine on the iPhone I’ll change my name to Garrett Ochocinco.
So believe you me, I got super nervous when one of the first shots of the iPad today contained a photo of Chad Ochocinco. Luckily, Bing wasn’t mentioned at all.

The New York Times has a ridiculous interview with Jeff Bezos about the Kindle:
Barnes & Noble claims on its Web site that the Nook has several advantages over the Kindle — for one thing, a Nook book can be lent to friends. You can forward the text to another user.
The current thing being talked about is extremely limited. You can lend to one friend. One time. You can’t pick two friends, not even serially, so once you’ve loaned one book to one friend, that’s it.
You have to pick just one person? What are you saying? It’s like “Sophie’s Choice”?
It is “Sophie’s Choice.” Very nicely done.
As Paul Kafasis points out:
I don’t believe either of these people have any idea what exactly Sophie’s choice was. Sophie had to choose which of her children would be murdered. By Nazis.
It’s not every day the New York Times and the head of one of the largest retailers in the world take a moment to make a correlation between sharing books and Auschwitz horrors.
But you know, if you think about it, it really is pretty much exactly the same. I mean, sharing with only one person? Please. Take my daughter already.
“ If you’re able to stay aroused when you look down and see this thing beneath you, you’re a better man than I. Seriously, there’s nothing that kills a boner faster than the self-awareness that comes from being balls deep in a piece of furniture. ”Adam Frucci, Fleshlight Motion Review at GizmodoAlso, watch the video review. It’s great (and, thankfully, does not involve Frucci actually using these products).
