Brewster Rockit by Tim Rickard for April 20, 2010

He has a point….

Happiness never brought money.

He’s i-ddicted.

Cliff-Notes might get the message through to him?

Gadgets will bring you happiness if you have connectivity to the Web; you can order happiness from Amazon.

He’s an engineer, guys! Money’s not the issue, doing what he does best is! And that is certainly a great cause of happiness.

Be glad Cliff is being productive for a change, more or less.

To paraphrase and old saying: Gadgets will get you through times of no money, better than money will get you through times of no gadgets.

When I was a drinker, I could see no possibility of facing reality without a drink. Catch 22 But if I quit my gadgets cold turkey, I may become dependant on (gasp) books.

Lew, that’s why I no longer read books. I found myself staying up until 3 or 4 in the morning reading when I had to get up for work at 5 am. Now with the internet, I’m only up until 1 or 2 am when i have to get up at 5.

Gadgets are good beloved.

Uh, what kind of gadgets is Cliff referring to? The kind that you can’t show in family cartoon strips?

i surprised Apple didn’t go as far as “accidentally” revealing the new iphone to Cliff and then issuing a demand to have it sent back

I don’t know why people complain about quitting cold turkey; I can do it easily. Quitting reheated pizza, however, is a challenge.

Oldbot showed up to convince Cliff to stay away from gadgets; he ain’t no fool.

If you take away his gadgets, he’ll only move on to gizmos and doohickies.

Intervention does not produce happiness either.

Gadget addiction? There’s an app for that!
