wow...what a person will go through to make money and create something to get another off...I will take the real thing and a sex toy over just a sex toy any day of the week. She is cute but damn, sitting for 15 minutes with stuff all over your face...nope, couldn't do it. Too claustrophobic...she is cute, though, and am tempted to go out and get a video. Wonder just how good she is...hmm. I once dated someone in the sex industry...to my surprise, the sex was not as good as with other people. Of course, that could very well be a reflection of our incompatibility, or I suck as a lover...or she did, one of the two. I am having phenomenal sex now...and that is all that matters...except, maybe...
This which I may have to send off to a friend of mine...
if only they were not so far away...

the boys that brought us skype are well on their way to making another fortune with this. Is Joost the future of internet TV? The editor of maclife says that it has potential. But what about youtube or Apple TV and iTunes?
Lets step back for a second...has anyone read Fahrenheit 451? Books are banned and burned while huge tv screens provide entertainment. People are not supposed to think critically...they are simply supposed to go about their daily lives. Big brother is watching, etc...
I have always said that computer and other technological innovations are exciting and, when used appropriately, are very capable tools to better our lives. However, I have always been skeptical of bringing my computer into the living room and using it as the focal point for everything. The potential for control starts to grow exponentially when we bring computers into the game of media machine. Already TiVo records shows it "recommends" for the person using it based on shows watched. That seems innocent enough...but fascism doesn't just appear with a bang, it slips in slowly. More importantly, the more entertained we are, the less it is likely that we will think for ourselves.
Let us step back from that...I am not advocating we become Luddites and throw all technology away...there are so many factors that are at play with thinking critically, etc. The education system plays a big role, and needs to step it up a bit. What I am saying is caution is needed, awareness and for heavens sake don't pay such close attention to Anna Nicole Smith that you forget about what really matters! To be more specific...entertainment is defined by the American Heritage dictionary as, "Something that amuses, pleases, or diverts, especially a performance or show". However, we have taking it and created media centers that revolve around only reporting what is going on in the lives of our entertainers. While mildly fascinating for some, I have seen it become completely all consuming for other people...to the point where they are not paying attention. So that when something like this comes along, only a handfull of people really care. I mean, of course another celebrity sex tape is more important, right? Don't get me wrong, she is gorgeous...but come one people, its all a publicity stunt. As was the faux Paris/Nicole not being friends thing. I could go on...but then you might think that I am obsessed with what happens in the entertainment world.
That may be true, but I pay attention, and I hope that you do as well...
until next time, don't forget to wear a condom, practice abstinence or use birth control...there are too many children on this planet as it is.

I have been thinking about what my first post here should cover...and really haven't reached any solid conclusions. So I am simply going to vent about a few things that have been on my mind.
First and foremost, when I read about the apple iPhone and what people are saying...yes Apple introduced it with much fanfare...but then its not going to be released until a little less than six months after the announcement? My theory is that Apple did this in order to gauge public response to the product and then tweek the design if necessary (for instance, including a simple, physical sliding keyboard). Whether or not they include it with gen 1, it will come in subsequent versions, or, more likely, a different version (iPhone Executive...iPhone Type...iPhone Key...whatever). The other big gripe is the lack of 3g...ummm, so it doesn't have 3g right now...how quick do you think Apple can release something with 3g once the network exists to at all beneficial. Oh, wait, the lack of a removable battery...can't defend Apple on this one, but again...they have time to change their mind.
The DRM issue is exciting...I think it is appropriate that Apple is leading the fight in this battle...whether or not they supported DRM in the past is irrelevant. I believe this is the direction Jobs and Co. wanted to go in initially, but they had to wait until they had the clout to make it happen.
So, ultimately, that is what this will be about...my love affair with Apple and, subsequently, other gadgets...with a little attitude, politics and sex thrown in for good measure. Just not today...I am worn out from watching about half of the democratic debate on youtube...good grief, it was as if Obama hadn't spoken in front of a live audience before. Kucinich is awesome...I do not care what the folks at Common Dreams say, Gravel is nuts...crazy...lunatic.
good day and be safe
