You know who I’m talking about…
Every chapter has at least one or two members who seem to go out of their way to get in your way - and make you nuts!

What are you doing next Tuesday, July 15th from 8:00 - 8:50 PM ET?

It’s 8:00 AM, Tuesday, July 8th. The iPhone 3G is not available until July 11th.
