Don't terrorists use cell phones as long distance detonators?

Feb 23, 09 - 09:54 am Comment from: Mac-nugget

Sorry, wrong finger.

@Preston

If the terrorists are strapping an iPhone to their bombs as the detonation device, they are seriously high end.

But with AppleCare, maybe it pays off.

@ all bigots:

Aren't douchers supposed to be doing something ignorant like, lets say, raising your hick children to hate all blacks, jews, and arabs and never grow out of the mentality of what the media dictates to them?

Even as a joke, there are limits. You're insulting a lot of people who are at more of a risk than you are. If you want to do something or say something make sure it's productive.

Anywho, that is reaaaallly pricey. I don't understand why it is that pricey but if I could guess it'd be because there's a monopoly.

No thank you, you can rob me another day.

is wifi disabled like in egypt?

Should be some amazing sales. This is a wealthy group.

Feb 23, 09 - 10:53 am Comment from: ron

No, No, No, HMCIV, you use the phone to trigger the the explosion from a distance, hopefully.

You might do it while close to the bomb, if you're dense. ړګڬچفقۑۆڵث ط

@Preston - what a shame...

The last time I was over there, most of the wealthy folks already had iPhones (just like in Russia and China). This is aimed at the masses more than the wealthy.

K'
What the f*uck are you ranting about?
Something to make you feel better?
How small minded....

Feb 23, 09 - 11:06 am Comment from: TowerTone

sorry
that should have been fu*ck...

Feb 23, 09 - 02:00 pm Comment from: HMCIV

@ron Oooooooh it's supposed to be a remote. No wonder my competitors have been able to under bid me.


As for today's ranter...
K, K, K, we're not taking swipes at Arabs. We're taking swipes at terrorists. And not all terrorists mind you, just the ones who roll with a heck of a lot of bling.

i would really love to see the effect on some of the "......" who wrote some comments about arabs, if we cut off the oil for couple of months!! Hmmm, will they get on their bikes, again, back to work? i think they won't mind bending over just to get that pump working again!! Don't want to, but i have to. Sorry!!
