Wanna see the new hotness depart from that plain old metal look everyone is so fond of? Now you can catch the iPod shuffle in pink, green, blue, and orange.
UPDATE: iLounge had these babies in as soon as the news dropped, and they released some key tidbits for the new ipods.
The orange color [...]
Thank god for SWEM library at William and Mary! I usually would try to purchase my textbooks at Amazon, the WM Bookstore (Barnes and Noble clone), or Abes Books. Fortunately this semester, with about $180 in book purchases to make, I was able to get all five required textbooks for free through my [...]
I always wanted to figure out the perfect way to illustrate lyrics and the substructures of rhyming and combination schemes (multies).

Absolute insanity. Without a shadow of a doubt, an exciting new direction and chapter for hip hop. I haven’t been this into anybody since 1999, and I don’t listen to anything but rap. Breaks the bar-formula, breaks the hook-form, defies even the limits that Kanye, Common, and Eminem can’t. Wale brings a truly local genre [...]
If you recall, I posted previously about the tasty and cheap Schawarma that I ate in Dubai in Winter 2004/2005 in my post last year about my Doner Diet. But now a little more on the topic of the city of outstanding growth.
Construction in Dubai is on fire. Soon individuals will be able [...]
