Thoughts on textsfromlastnight and FML apps phenomena

Posted by iPhone Addict on Sep 12, 2009 in iPhone Games

The Sound of Silence

Posted by iPhone Addict on Sep 12, 2009 in iPhone Games

When I was lying awake one night, thinking about my plight as a light sleeper, I came to the realization that even the places that are supposed to be the most quiet can't hardly achieve silence.
