Legitimate reasons for watching reality shows?

Date August 5, 2008

Alright, so in the spirit of transparency I’m going to share something with you all that I have been doing for a few years now that could very well get my man-card suspended for good for mentioning but I believe I have justification for my actions (if only partially).

It’s last night at about 9:30p and I pull up Apple’s website to see what the availability would be for my Apple store at Willow Bend mall to have an iPhone 3G tomorrow. The website says it would be available in my flavor (white, 16GB) tomorrow so I began wondering what time I had [...]
