Nafisto the Great

At the risk of offending some of my friends (from Russia? Germany? Mars?) I thought I’d post this 2 minute gem from the 1980s, that most horrific of decades. Boy am I glad East and West can unitedly look back and realize just how far we have come. Enjoy.

UPDATE:  You can find some information about the song and the band on Wikipedia.

Okay, I don’t celebrate Christmas, but maybe for Ayyam-i-Ha one of my dear friends or family members will buy me one of these:

Yup, that’s the new iPhone that Apple JUST unvieled at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas Macworld Conference in San Francisco. The iPhone combines a telephone, PDA and iPod into a slick little device with a wide touch screen that works either in portrait or landscape mode. And because it runs Mac OS X, you can run just about any application on it.

Here are some more images (stolen from Engadget):

And my favorite picture showing Google Maps on the iPhone (all using touch screen for click and scroll, mind you):

Okay, it won’t ship until June … so Ayyam-i-Ha is out. But I am eligible for a cell phone upgrade in May, and hopefully someone will be getting me one of these puppies and I can post some more pictures in a month’s time (hint hint)
