       It is now widely reported that Apple's Steve "It's only a hormone
       imbalance" Jobs got himself a new alcohol filter in the state of
       Tennessee, where the waiting list is less than two months
       (compared with over 10 months at the national average). To be
       fair to the secretive Apple executive, who apparently has been
       consulted by Dick Cheney as an expert in highly effective bunkers
       and hiding places, the liver in question was undoubtedly placed
       due to his recent brush with pancreatic malignancy and not booze
       (the full details of which are still not known), and he was at
       the top of the list medically and not by any known, uh, offer of
       privilege.
        
       I am therefore proud to state that I have done my part in
       Steve-O's recovery, which was probably facilitated in part by
       medical equipment with PowerPC chips in them, with my recent
       purchase at the confiscatory "early upgrade" rate ($499) of a
       32GB iPhone 3GS. And while I am a Mac fan but not an Apple fan,
       because Apple can be wildly erratic, I am very pleased with it
       even at this kidneystone of a price. It is amazingly fast and the
       video is nice, and 32GB is tasty. I do guiltily admit I own so
       far one of each iPhone generation (this is them) and upgraded
       each time the next generation came out, but I think I might wait
       for awhile before the "iPhone 3GT" because I'm going to have to
       pass another credit stone getting a new laptop next year.
        
       Incidentally, I noticed while doing the arrangement for the photo
       that the boxes have consistently shrunk in thickness each
       generation. The 8GB original iPhone box is a fatty compared with
       the medium 3G and svelte 3GS's, meaning the 4G's package will
       probably be around the thickness of an obese piece of paper.
