It is supposed to be released sometime in September. Personally, I don't give a damn. It's going to have a bigger screen and have a more durable glass class. I still don't care. The new iOS is rumored to have better features than previous reasons. Doesn't tickly my fancy. Don't get me wrong, if somebody gave me one for free I would take it.....so I could sell it. This type of thing is called "flipping" in many urban environments.
I've never had an iPhone. I have an iPod though. I like to take it outside and pretend it is an iPhone. It works most of the time....well at least I hope it does. I currently have a Windows Phone. The biggest drawback is that it does not support many popular apps. Even with all that being said, it will be no shock when it hits shelves and becomes sold out.

Israel and Palestine
This is something that has been in the news for some time now, but I have tried my best to not discuss it. The main reason is because I am fed up with the situation in that part of the world. It has been going on for decades with no legitimate solution in sight. Being exposed to images of children who have been obliterated by military grade weapons can and have break make any sensible human being's heart.
Social media seems to be the bulk of how people are expressing their views on the situation. Even though it seems like the overwhelming majority of people are sympathetic to the Palestinian side, there are a fair number of people who are on the opposite side of the spectrum. From what I have gathered, most, if not all, side with Israel due to religious views. I have read such things as "May God be with Israel", "Israel is the land of The Chosen People," "These are the signs of end times." With radical views like this it is not surprising why certain people have this viewpoint. The situation goes beyond religious and ethnic lines. This is now clearly a humanitarian issue. When innocent civilians, many of which are women and children, are being targeted, everything becomes black and white. I do not know what will happen in the near future, but I hope it is for the best for both sides.

It's been a while guys
Hope everybody is doing well. The reason for my long absence is that I pretty much wore myself out. I wrote and anything and everything that came to mind. Also, I was busy doing other things. What are those things? None of your business, you nosey Desis, but I can tell you I am not married or engaged. I just wanted to say a quick hello to everybody out there. I have some free time in the evening and might go back to posting. It depends on if I feel inspired or not. Until then, bye.
