This Is A Blackberry

Sarah thinks I’m silly for wanting to wear this to pick up my brand spanking new iPhone on Friday. I think she said something along the lines of, “Seriously? You have to have an outfit for that?” But it’s really not so much of an outfit as it is a… Okay, fine. It’s a fucking outfit.
But at least my outfit contains a veiled stab at BlackBerry that I’m pretty sure only I think is clever. Then again, I will be waiting in line with a bunch of Apple geeks — some of whom have neck beards, watch copious amounts of Monty Python and will be liveblogging the line from their WiFi retrofitted Newton — so someone else very well might get a chuckle out of it. One can always hope, I guess.
Still, I’ve always found that a little Magritte reference goes a long way even if folks don’t quite “get” what I was getting at in the first place.
Disclaimer: The gang at Ten Bills sent me a nice batch of tees from their newest collection to look over a few days ago — and this was one of them. They’ve also been know to advertise in the sidebar. So despite the fact that they’re giving me free clothing and a dollar or two here or there, I didn’t let either of those things influence my decision. As always, I seriously like this shirt. And that’s the only way a tee will ever make it up here — or onto me for that matter.

I’d imagine that most people who’ve decided to line up to buy a phone will plan their outfit in some form or another.
And yes, I am seething with jealousy that I can’t have an iPhone!

Andy: I’m still not sure if I can score an iPhone when they drop. As it is, I’m stuck at work on Fridays until 6PM — and that’s when the iPhone launches. I’m sure people will be lined up like crazy to get one, but I’m going to try my hardest to make sure that I can score it.
