On another note regarding technoenvy, I just got myself a 22" wide screen monitor. I have a friend at work that has a 28" widescreen. He thinks he's so much better, but seriously the 22" monitor is almost to big, a 28" would just be cumbersome. Then again on the opposite side of the scale mobile/cell phones can be just to small. People with normal or cubby fingers just can’t use them, the mouthpiece sits just blow your earlobe and you lose them in you coin pockets. And people ofter point and say wanker when they see you with one. I am not a Filthy Early Adopter (FEA) and for that I am thankful, as I only buy gadgets that have proven useful and at about half the price that the FEAs pay for them.

Now THAT would be something Saturday would envy. You know you could download to your iPod both the sound and movie of someone stabbing someone in the eye with a pencil.
