Buy all the iThings!

I wasn't expecting much from yesterday's Apple event; I wasn't too interested in an iPad Mini. But now, dammit Apple, I want everything. Because, according to Phil, all the iThings I already own look old now.

The new iMac looks super sexy. The lack of a firewire port, though, is quite disappointing. But I'm not a power user or whatever those people are called so I'm okay with USB and thunderbolt.

It was a blast. I would have liked to have been there just a little longer - I do feel like I missed a lot of things - but I had an amazing time! It's not like you could go to everything in these types of events. I didn't have time to actually walk the floor and see all the booths; I didn't even go to the Doctor Who booth! I only managed to go to the center, where Legendary, Marvel, Dark Horse, Lego, Nintendo, and Nerdist were. The one thing I hate about the whole thing: my iPhone's battery lasts about 4 hours! I couldn't take pictures or videos or anything or it would just die instantly; and I didn't want to waste time sitting down by an outlet to charge it. Some of the pictures here are stolen from the internet.

3 games, 2 starts, 4 goals

It wasn't a good performance by United's standard, and we really need to do better going forward this season. For most of the game (and the previous two games), there seems to be a lack of urgency and creativity within the team. But of course, celebrating Sir Alex Ferguson's 1,000th league match in charge of Manchester United wouldn't be right without the late winner drama.

Good luck, Berba!

Deadline day, and Dimitar Berbatov finally finds a new home in Fulham. Berbatov signed a 2-year contract with the club after a frustrating year at United, limited to only 21 appearances all season, 12 in the league. Quite unfair since he's the joint top scorer of the previous season.

I am a fan of Berbatov. It's a shame that he just couldn't fit into United's team. Or, more accurately, Sir Alex Ferguson couldn't fit him into his team. His movement is beautiful and I just enjoy watching him play. He still has the skills necessary to play at the top level; he just needed a different team than ours. So, best of luck, Dimi. I definitely will be watching Fulham a bit more now just to watch him play.

I'd just like to take the opportunity to thank everyone at #MUFC. You have all been so great to me with my 4 years at the club, thank you!!

Welcome, RVP!

I'm a little bit late on this - alright, very late - but I just wanted to make a post to welcome him. Robin van Persie arrived a few days before the new season started from Arsenal to Manchester United. I have to say, the reaction of Arsenal fans (especially this guy) is the most entertaining thing about the deal. The getting van Persie part isn't too bad either.
