PETA Upset...Over a Fly?

Really PETA? C'mon, I agree with a lot of things you guys stand for (not everything, I am a self proclaimed carnivore), but bitching about the death of a fly really makes me lose a lot of respect for you. How can PETA take itself seriously, with stupid outcries like that, I swear you are your own worst enemy.

Here is the vid, Obama really did a fine job of killing that little bastard. Oh, I also love how news channels were making this into such a big deal.

Ruehl Finally Gets Dropped

After performing so poorly for the past few years, Abercrombie & Fitch's "other" concept store is closing down. While Hollister was designed for the younger crowd, Ruehl no.925 was originally made for the post-grad group. In the beginning, their clothes were very different than Abercrombie's, all the while keeping the same tone as their middle brothers. Due to bad marketing, and huge ego's over at AnFHQ, the store over time started to lose that maturity and eventually became an AnF clone. Good job Mike Jeffries, you ran your best concept into the ground. Ruehl really could have made a come back if it just adhered to its original concept and was better marketed, imho.
I'm pretty pissed off about this, Ruehl had some of the best fitting button-up shirts ever. Actually, since I started shopping there, thats all they had. Oh well, time to move on.

I Need a New Phone

The HTC Magic aka The My Touch 3G aka The G2

I have a Samsung SGH-t819, and while its a good phone I'm not personally fond of it.
I get to upgrade sometime this summer, early August and I am in the market for a smartphone. Since the iphone is out of the question (too expensive, and I don't dig two year contracts with At&t) I am looking towards the Android lineup.
Right now only the G1 runs Android, but T-mobile will be releasing the G2 aka the My Touch 3G this summer! I can't wait, I love the G1 but I hate how it looks like. The My Touch 3G looks sick and I definitely have to pick one up. With unlimited data and texts it comes up to $95 a month on a family plan, which isn't bad.

But now there is news that Huawei will be releasing an Andorid phone (U8230) sometime later this year in Europe, which means the U.S. won't get it for a while. :-(
It looks damnsexy though.
