We’re in the final stretch of the pre-iPhone launch, and time is molasses – all gooey and shapeless, with no real direction or flow. Why is it that time seems to slow as anticipation increases? That question is beyond the scope of this particular blow, but we can’t deny its truth.
Helicopters are flying overhead, non-Apple iPhone line-waiters are crowding the Apple Store’s front door, and Apple employees have started to black-out the windows. The mere act of blacking-out the windows stirred up a frenzy and kicked up the crowd’s mood another notch.
But, we see the goal and it’s completely worth it! Tourists are treating us with celebrity and contempt – all rolled into a ball of sarcastic wit. No matter, we can almost taste the Apple iPhone, and it’s enticing. iPhone, here we come!
