If you didn’t believe me when I said that Facebook sucks your life away, maybe now you will.

With all the hype about the iPad recently, it’s pretty hard not to read the reviews and media buzz. I found an iPad article that is my favorite. The title is what initially drew me in, I Managed to Not Buy an iPad. It hugely surpasses all the other articles for pure wit and humor. [...]
