Fanatics were beginning to line-up for the iPad 2. This behavior confuses me. Is it really worth the bragging rights to be the first to own?  

Had a photoshoot this week. On paper, shoots sound glamorous. In reality, it's a grueling day of standing on your feet and fighting tedium. Still, I know I'm lucky I'm not flipping burgers or selling cigarettes anymore. 

My evening commute always takes me past the airport where earth-shaking 747's seem to almost graze the top of your car. Exhilarates every freakin' time.
