I used to work for a photo company and had a delivery driver bring in a crushed box saying that he had backed over it. Maybe that is what happened to the poor little iPad. BTW, the box had a $1000 special order projection bulb. To say the least the customer was not happy, we just gave him the Customer Service # for the delivery company.

This could be true. Maybe he threw himself into harms way to protect the iPad. Poor Alex, hope that is not what happened.

Nope, you've just disqualified yourself. The reason being is that you don't know the difference between peanut butter and chocolate. Reeses Pieces are peanut butter. No chocolate at all.

Egad - you are correct - peanut butter in a candy shell!

Ah! But you are both wrong! Yes, I know Reese's Pieces are peanut butter, but Rich did not specify which kind of candy he was picking up...

I love AnemicOak's picture of Alex in the crowd of fans! I was thinking "Where's Waldo?" too BOb! The mass of Swiss flags are the same colors as Waldo's wardrobe! Maybe we should be searching that photo for the iPad? Alex sort of stands out, but I suspect the iPad is much more well hidden!



This could be the next generation of best-selling childrens books "Where's Alex with that iPad?" Find Alex/iPad hidden among the lounge llamas... Alex/iPad hidden amongst psockpuppets all waiting to keelhaul him... Alex/iPad hidden among all of the entries in the "Pick WT's New Avatar Contest"... Alex/iPad hidden amongst all of the MR members celebrating Donut Day eating their pastry of choice... Alex/iPad hidden among all the avatars of MR members waiting not-so-patiently for it and all claiming it as their own. I could go on and on...

That might actually taste good, I'd at least give it a try. But with dark chocolate it would be blasphemy.
