June 24th, 2009:
Not much happened today. Sat around watching reruns of Charlie's Angels and VH1 Classics after dinner. Also got a mysterious email saying I should download an iPhone app called iHandgun. Load it up and you see a picture of a gun on your screen. When you touch the trigger, the gun "fires" (the phone vibrates) and smoke comes out of the barrel. It's fun for awhile.

Pretty rough day. Dropped my iPhone into the crapper and it stopped working. Then I turned on the news and found out Farrah Fawcett and Michael Jackson both passed away. On the same day? Man.

Finally, after months of frustration with a borrowed Nokia, my iPhone has finally returned from being repaired! Will have to reinstall all my apps and music. Oh, and Dirty Dancing is on TV later. I love that movie.

Sept 14, 2009:
Unbelievable news. I'm writing this entry as I watch the evening news, and they're saying Patrick Swayze just passed away? I just saw him last night! This is too depressing, I'm going to change the channel to something lighter. Maybe a cooking show...

Sept 16, 2009:
Dear diary, it's been 48 hours of sleepless torment for me since hearing about Keith Floyd. There's no other logical reason for these deaths... Each and every time I've played with iHandgun, it's been pointed at the TV... and now they're all dead. What? I'm not going mad. Can't you see the truth? I see it as plainly as the accurate and fully-animated actions of these two included guns I hold in my hand. My blood runs cold when I think of what evil I have committed. I should turn myself in. No... jail is too good for a monster such as myself. Never again shall these hands run red (figuratively) with the guilt of murder.

For the very last time, I will hear those realistic sound effects as I load the virtual clip and cock the hammer with just a stroke across the multi-touch screen. Perhaps I will even attach the optional silencer before pressing it to my feverish forehead. Goodbye, faithful diary!

Huh. I guess it was just an app after all.
