GREEK TRAGEDY AVERTED

My mom and I are currently involved in daily Words with Friends battles. At first I’d spank beat best her all the time. Then gradually mom started getting better and better. Now we’re neck and neck. However, I’m still at a disadvantage sometimes (just ‘cause she’s my mom.) The other day I could’ve spelled the dirty word below, but went for a lesser one. 

She wound up beating me that game by only a few points. What would you have done blogosphere?

THERE'S AN APP FOR THAT?

A NAUGHTY NURSE ($.99) by McApps is the latest crop of "not quite porn" porn apps to be approved by the Apple powers that be.
Similar to its soft core film brethren, it's not all T&A. There's actually a plot:
You're a single guy hitting the slopes on X-mas Eve. Though thanks to a mogul misjudgement you end up in the intensive care unit - all by your lonesome. Well, except for a whole ward of naughty nurses for you to oggle.

MOST EXPENSIVE IPHONE APPS THAT YOU SHOULD GIVE A DAMN ABOUT.

Deliberating if you should spend 9 bucks on the latest iphone igame? A mere drop in the bucket compared to these high, high priced apps. Though from the reviews each one is truly worth all of your hard earned ipennies. 

XA1 ($179.99)

XA1 offers sound engineers all the perks of a realtime spectrum analyzer, and the price is apparently a steal. Portable hardware models go for at least $1200.

LEXI-COMPLETE ($299):

Any app with "Medical" in the description pretty much guarantees a hefty price tag. Lexi-Complete does not disappoint. This app will give you access to any and every type info in the medical world: drug interactions, disease management, patient education, etc. 

MY ACCOUNTS TO GO ($449.00):

If you’re a CFO of a multi-million dollar conglomerate that needs access to financial reports 24/7 this is the app for you. Lets you sync to some proprietary money management software called Microsoft Dynamics GP (Great Plains).

LEXTECH LABS IRa PRO ($899.99):

Now you can be a night watchman and never have to leave the comforts of your couch. Ira Pro offers you access to hundreds of security camera feeds in the palm of your hand.  Not just simple images, you can receive real video streaming (over Wifi). Perfect if you want to keep tabs on a giant building or museum.   

iPHONE APP OFFICIALLY GETS AWKWARD!

When it comes to iphone apps I thought I officially saw it all with the advent IFart and Pull My Finger. Yep, I was totally iWrong. BellyButton is the new oddball, iphone app du jour. The name alone says it all. For 99¢ you get your choice of 7 belly skins: innie, outie, beer belly, six pack, hula girl, hairy and navel orange. All lint free. Like other apps, there is an interactive feature. Simply rub the belly and you’ll be treated to vibrations and giggle sounds (female, male & toddler). Tickle the belly too much and you get their version of an ifart. So if you’re looking for that perfect “awkward moment” generator, BellyButton is the app for you.
