Per Asron's request, a fact of the day column!!!
Todays:
Apple sold 14 million iPods in the fourth quarter of 2005 - the equivalent of more than 100 iPods a minute for 3 months straight, day and night!
Cheers!

...to elaborate on the ipod topic. They weren't the first or anywhere close to the most innovative mp3 player either. It just goes to show how much a fancy package and good marketing come into play

Friday's:
The average person sheds million of skin cells each day -- even during sleep. Dust mites in your bed feed on them; so much so that the weight of a mattress will double every ten years because of the dead bugs inside!
Good times!!
