Unshit List- Updated

This is my view of the world and some of the coolest people, places, gadgets and ideas. So I'm ripping the idea from every mag and website in the world.

BBC Couplings because it is hilarious and the show provides so much insight and helps us to bridge the man-women communication gap. For example: "I want to spend the rest of my life with the woman at the end of that table there, but that does not stop me wanting to see several thousand more naked bottoms before I die, because that's what being a bloke is. When man invented fire, he didn't say, "Hey, let's cook." He said, "Great, now we can see naked bottoms in the dark." As soon as Caxton invented the printing press, we were using it to make pictures of, hey, naked bottoms! We have turned the Internet into an enormous international database of naked bottoms. So you see, the story of male achievement through the ages, feeble though it may have been, has been the story of our struggle to get a better look at your bottoms. ~Coupling, "Inferno," original airdate 2 June 2000, written by Steven Moffat, spoken by the character Steve

The SLVR is super slim, the speaker phone works decently. It looks cool. The camera is fun and it is smaller then that crap Razr Phone. Downside the download to the phone is painfully slow.
