Today is hump day and I thought I would give you guys some stuff to ponder throughout the rest of the week. Have you heard about the little Iraqi baby the US saved? Have you been watching/reading/listening to the news? Then you should know about the little baby with Spinabifida who, oh by the way, just happens to be Iraqi. Question... would this even make the news if she was a Georgian? Anybody? NO! What a pretty obvious publicity stunt for the U.S. Government. Granted, I believe what they are doing is right, but maybe instead of spending however much they spent on fixing that kid (no Dinar exchanged hands I'm sure) they could have invested it into Iraq itself... or, here's a thought, invest it domestically!
Yesterday Apple just released a couple of cool things. If you have been holding out on getting an iPod because you just can't stand the thought of parting with your FM radio stations, do yourself a favor and jump off a bridge. Or, buy the accessory when you buy your iPod that enables you to catch to those FM waves... oh yeah, and it's also a remote so you don't have to reach into your pocket and change the song when "Prince Ali" comes on in shuffle mode. Thanks but no thanks Apple. But, the new laptop is something I drool over. It's just uber fast and really sleek. A cool feature? Well, since you asked.... it has a backlight keyboard that turns on when it gets dark. The letter itself glows a light green. How cool is that. No more typing in the dark.
Ever seen a satellite image? Want to see them all? Download Google Earth. Just released, it is amazing. Similar programs have been out before, but none as easy as the Google Earth one. You can search any place in the world and pull a pre-recorded satellite image of it. You can zoom too. In really popular places like Atlanta and San Francisco, you can zoom so close to see individual cars.... from freaking space man. Nope, not gonna find your shack in Alapaha, GA, sorry.
Trivia question for y'all... should be real easy. Kelly, you can't answer. What is Alapaha known for? Have a good day!

Oh yes, there was a whole national geographic special done on him. My father carries around the newspaper clipping in his wallet and uses it as a conversation starter...maybe I shouldn't have admitted that!
