Oh Sweet Mother of God. As each day passes, we get closer and closer to Results Day. 2 to go now. I'm beginning to completely and utterly dread it. I feel sick even thinking about it now.
On a lighter note, however, I had an abundance of people I could Dedicate too today. Harry Redknapp was one, after Spurs' quite embarrassing defeat to Young Boys in the Champions League, for him to blame the pitch. Again. It kinda grates now, Harry.
Mr Starbucks, whomever he may be, could have got it too, seeing as I decided to try and apply for a second job there. I am attempting to gain a little more money...
But no. Today goes to STEVE JOBS. Because Steve Jobs is the man who is behind the iPhone, of which I'm days away from getting. Booya.
Vodafone finally replied to my umpteenth complaint over the handset, the customer service and the signal, and offered me an early upgrade. Fair enough. So I'm going for an iPhone 4 - black, of course. With a bumper. I'm feeling those bumpers you get free.
Steve is an absolute idol. For a bloke who takes a salary of $1 a year, he's a genius. Not only has he become an icon, but he's created a brand of which no-one has ever seen before, and will probably never see again. The iPod has taken over the music market. The iPhone has taken over the phone market. The iMac and MacBook carved into the Windows monopoly of the PC market. And now the iPad is cruising in the tablet computer market. It's just incredible.
So, his final, and obviously most prestigious accolade to date is this.
STEVE JOBS, you are the Day Dedicatee for Tuesday 17th August 2010.
