The dangers of tile floors and unprotected devices...


Can you see this? This is my iTouch AFTER being dropped on a hard tile floor. The glass is shattered. It's broken. It's dead. It's useless.
No longer can I feed my fish while patiently trying to breed that magic 7th fish. I can't check the weather. I can't watch my iTunes shows in the middle of the night when I can't sleep. I can't spend hours playing mah jongg refusing to go on to the next layout until I mastered the one at hand. And no longer can I check my email at all hours of the day without sitting down at the laptop (oh, yes I can, my Blackberry took care of that.)
Can it be fixed? We'll see. But I miss my friend.

A Poem, By Scott

If I Were In Charge of the World

If I were in charge of the world,
I'd cancel homework
And school and also
Chores.

If I were in charge of the world,
There'd be super powers
Robots to serve you
Your own cook
Candy is the main course in restaurants and
You get a free iphone.

If I were in charge of the world,
You wouldn't have sister, Barcelona team
You wouldn't have bullies
You wouldn't have rules
Or any vegatables.

If I were in charge of the world
You would rule every planet and
No gravity and ice cream is healthy.

And a person who sometimes forgot to brush his teeth
and sometimes forgot to clean his room
Would still be allowed to be
In charge of the world.
