My bags are pretty much packed and I should be flying back to Montana at 8am tomorrow morning. It's been a great summer. A summer I will never forget. To all my New York folk, I will be back. You certainly didn't see the last of me!
Working for Random House, Inc. this summer was a unique experience that confirmed a few things for me. Now, I should be able to focus more on what I want the rest of my life to look like.
Thank You Random House.
Thank You New York.
To all the friends I've made during my time here, I hope to see you again.
Baby, I'm coming home..
To show even more proof that the iPhone is the hot ticket at the moment, all kinds of companion accessories are cropping up to making the iPhone experience heavenly.
Rear Logo Glow
Now, this is just balling. Need to make the Apple logo on the rear shell glow like it's MacBook cousins? No problem says some Russian modders for a neat $300.
Verdict: Nice to have, too expensive to even care about. I have a silicone case over my iPhone anyways.
6X Telescopic Lens
Need a 6X zoom on your iPhone camera? No problem. Brando has released a telescopic add-on for the iPhone for $20. It takes pictures like this.
Verdict: Pretty neat. Would love to get my hands on one. It's only $20. Come onnnn!
iPhone Stylus
You can thank the Japanese for creating this stylus for iPhone users who have trouble controlling the touchscreen or just have really long finger nails. The stylus has a flexible tip that mimics a finger's ability to control objects on the screen. Also included is a Sim Eject Tool. ThinkGeek offers both silver and black styli for $14.99, imported from Japan.
Verdict: Great little tool for a good price. However, I don't have any problem with the touch screen. If you do, you definitely need to pick one up!

Funny Story. I was walking around South Sea Street Port when I wanted to take a picture of the ships that were docked there. I reached into my bag and started to feel around for my camera. I kept feeling around and it wasn't there! I was pissed off to high heaven. I was so sure that my camera popped out of my bag some time during the course of the day. Arghhhh!
I continued with the rest of my night annoyed at the fact that I might have lost my camera. My beautiful, beautiful camera. Later that night, I finally came back home and there it was, sitting on my dresser. I was embarrassed and relieved at the same time.
The moral of the story? Get on this blog and get a great deal for a camera! Today's deal is the wildly popular Canon SD 1100. If I lost my camera, I would definitely pick this up!
