This really did happen......

I was on the W train a couple weeks ago.
I notice a woman with a Apple Powerbook, seated typing away didn't think much of it.
Anyway the train went into the tunnel and stalled in the tunnel because of traffic,
but the lights had turned off completely, I guess because the contact wasn't good to the 3rd rail.
Well this woman felt really conspicuous now because her Powerbook was now a beacon of the apple logo, all lit up.

Just thought I share this w/ you guys.

I know crime is down and all, but i still would not be typing on my ibook in the subway. that's just asking for it.

one of my good friends was mugged for her ipod this past summer on the subway.
the f****R bent her wrist back to take it out of her hand.

I hate to say it but don't use them on the subway.

I think the police caught and or stopped the guys stealing the ipods, it was on just a few lines and they were targeting women.

either way keep your ipods in your inside pocket, it will make less of a target.

Another thing, too....
Use one of those silicone "skins' to keep your pod in. If you choose a black one, like my son (who takes the train from Glendale to Fordam U) , black skin+ black headphones, = small sc**bag interest! Camo is what it's all about!

what's not to get?

the bad guys are still out there,
don't use white apple earphones,
someone might have had a bad Mac experience,
glocks jam S&Ws rock,
W trains are dangerous for electronic items,
NYPD or the NY Gov is making up crime stats,

right? ;)

you all owe me a beer :p

Mr Hale you hit the nail 98% on the head.
I loathe macs, Fixing Computers is my side gig. But everything else was right on the money.

Try this website I found it it's pretty funny.
