We can only presume "Retard Bar" is practically an oxymoron.
I think one way to sum up Apple would be an endless series of diversion tactics. Oh you have a technical problem with a product? Look at this place, it's a bar. We make you sit on a bar stool, while we stand behind the counter, like a real bartender. How cool is that? Don't you just love these surprises? Don't they make you feel better about that lemon product that you came in to complain about? It's not so bad really, is it?

Of course not. I'm sitting in a bar.

Actually, I once went to the Apple genius bar in downtown San Francisco to address a problem with a sound card that I had. Wasted an hour waiting for them, and they told me nothing I didn't know already. Complete waste of time.

Calling it a bar or not wasn't diversionary enough for how much of a waste that was.

I'm very disappointed on your behalf.

I hate that place. The last time I went was when I had to change out my hard drive in Jan. It's like the friggin' McDonalds of tech support.

I just downloaded all my text books to my Kindle. I swore I wouldn't do it because I didn't want to end up resenting my Kindle but it's so much easier to carry around than those heavy books.

Eating cereal..Watching the Godfather part 2.

Made me curious, I searched my name on some Ellis Island records site. Don't know how trustworthy it is but it is pretty crazy to see my name there, from the same town as my family as well, not that hard really :D but it still it pretty interesting.

Sicilian is the coolest of all the dialects :p
