This is the World I Live In


Where Apple calculatedly rolls out their most advanced technology in a magical and revolutionary product with a name sure to rile women the world over.

Where a masculine tech team is excited to see they’ve successfully created a hullabaloo (but iTampon “trends” BEFORE iPad).

Where a few weeks go by, and then (here it comes), they plead mea culpa and admit the error of their ways.

Where they implore forgiveness, bow to the naysayers and announce they will be changing the name of this hyped thing before the FCC approves it for release

Where the non-offensive name embodies the inherent qualities of a device I heart.

Where they hold a press conference and unveil the iPed, which is the Personal Electronic Device for the everyman/woman on the go.

Where everyone applauds their bold, yet humbling, action.

Where Apple receives praise for embracing a mistake, listening to crowds of wisdom and admitting defeat.

Where the same Apple emerges a hero in a world of ego-driven corporate miscreants.

Where sales of the iPed (also sold at nail salons) soar to new heights, surprise the harshest critics and drive the Apple stock to that of Google’s zenith.

All the while, Jobs’ posse kicks back with Cohiba in hand and has the last laugh.

What do you think of dem Apples?  What a world we live in.
