Penis envy envy.


Penis envy envy.

I've geeked this week about as much as I possibly can. And (of course) have, at the end of all this, a laughably microscopic "device" to show for all my troubles. Alas! Miniaturization and high technology have really done a number on macho penis compensation hobbies. Because fifty years ago, a man could obsess about a CAR. And have 455 cubic inches and 500 horses-worth of steel to show for it. What do we get today? A "converged device" that allows us to compress our already-virtual life into a two-inch screenful of pencil-point icons. It's pathetic.

But it DOES have a microscopic backlit keyboard. And it comes with a little family of ants to type on it. Anglophonic ants. They take dictation. It's really quite convenient.
