Yes. But what if it’s not really a misspelling at all?

Mike postulates that the driver is a golf-pro.

I think it’s cute.

If you are a tax payer and your teacher wants to have a funny license plate that ironically misspells ‘teacher’ as ‘teecher’, have a laugh, there are bigger problems in our schools :)

I think it’s available at your local Suncoast. (at least it was when I was there)

It’s not hot here at all. In fact it’s a bit chilly.

I’m in the same boat. Half the IT department here (that being the other guy) is talking about getting in line the night before to swap out his Iphone for a new one. He keeps trying me to go as well, but I don’t see the point of getting a new phone, especially after the one I have now is pretty awesome.

Maybe I’ve been with Apple to long, but I’m past the Jobs reality distortion field. It’s like a vicious cycle.

1) Apple comes out with a whiz-bang product that you, being the general public, have to have right this very instant! Jobs announces this product at a keynote address where everyone drools over his every word, and conveniently enough it’s available for purchase right now from the Applestore. Give or take six weeks for delivery.

2) Early adopters show off and complain about the product on sites like Engadget, Gizmodo, and various forums. The general public shrugs and goes back to saving to the new toy.

3) A new firmware/hardware revision/color choice is announced, and now the item is selling like hotcakes in a fat camp. The early adopters complain about everyone jumping on the bandwagon, and post about on their blogs. People shrug and love the new tiny wonder.

4) Apple see’s the reactions, starts to ramp up production on the next generation of the product, and leaks info to the internet. Early adopters prep their now “old toys” to be sold on Craigslist/Ebay/Fatwallet in hopes of making enough money to afford the next version as soon as it’s realized.

5) Steve Jobs announces the latest version of the product, proclaiming that the previous version is crap, and that you are a loser if you are still using it. The new version has a minor revision that fixes complaints, and also a new bell and whistle. Suddenly EBay is flooded with slight used previous versions, selling well below the purchase price.

6) At the end of the keynote, there is just one more thing, the latest gizmo from Apple that everyone can’t live without. Early adopters sell their souls, again, to be the first to play with the device. In three to six weeks.

Yeah. It was probably the best soup I’ve had in a long time.

Forgot to include the links to the recipes.
