iPhone is MyPhone

So I’m getting an iPhone today. In fact it is 11:45 AM and I am meeting my parents at La Tormenta in 15 minutes to have lunch and then drive over and make the purchase.
My stomach is doing back flips- and I have no idea why. Is this excitement? Anxiety? Am I spending too much money when I should just be saving it? I took a women’s one-a-day today (well half of one) because I decided that would be my excuse for why I feel so crazy. This phone is SO cool, and I hate my old phone. Stupid T-Mobile shadow. I wouldn’t suggest to anyone to buy the brand name phone that is made by your carrier. Buy a phone from a company that specializes in phones like Blackberry, Motorola, or LG. Ok well I can’t say the necessarily specialize in cell phones but they’ve done a lot better job that T-Mobile.
So my Dad asked me why I want an iPhone, what does it have that my current phone does not. Well for one, my old phone doesn’t really work and I need to send it in under the warrantee to have it replaced. The camera doesn’t work, whenever I text it spells words that are beyond my comprehension- it is not very smart at guessing what I am trying to say. I can get on the internet but it isn’t very reliable (wireless only). These are only a few. The iPhone on the other hand, well lets get real. There are thousands of app’s you can download that do anything and everything. There is an app that allows you to blow in the mike, and play it like an instrument. There’s an app so your iPhone can act like a level so you can hang pictures, you can budget your checking and savings accounts, check stock prices, exchange rates, give you recipe suggestions, you can even tell it to “fake call” you at a designated time. WOW this is not a phone, this is the world at my fingers!
I had thought of something profound in the shower today but now I can’t remember what .
Well I’m back! I’ve had lunch, and ate an apple- more like I am now a consumer of the iPhone! How cool! More to come!

Stem Cell Research

So I am teaching my class in a week about Stem Cell Research, and can I just let everyone know something....

I am Pro-Choice. If you choose to have sex, then you choose to live with the consequences of that choice. Which means creating human life. Once you have made that choice abortion is not an option.

Why do so many people think you can do things with out having consequence. If I want to jump up, I have to realize that because of gravity I will come back down. Intercourse leads to pregnancy, it's a simple fact.
