The Baddest Villain of 2007
The baddest villain in the Marvel Universe according to marvel.com’s Take Ten: Top Villains of 2007
The number 1 baddest villain is The Red Skull you want to know why… It’s simple “He Killed Captain America” and I think for the one who killed the Star Spangled Avenger he definitely deserves the limelight and the number 1 spot as the baddest villain in the Marvel Universe
More on why he kicks Ass!
Aside from ruling the world, most super villains have but one goal: take the hero that eternally vexes them and foils their every scheme out of the picture. You could count on less than one hand the number of bad guys who actually accomplish this task…until now. Because in 2007, the Red Skull did the impossible: he killed Captain America! And while most fright mask-wearing Nazis would settle for offing the symbol of American democracy, the Skull barely shrugged after snuffing out the Sentinel of Liberty, continuing to move forward on plans to follow up his coup de grace with an even bigger encore, the destruction of America itself! Now that’s just evil.

Affordable Phones to Salivate on!
Three days straight of nothing but phones. After drooling on those luxury phones yesterday, I might as well drool over some more phones. But this time, I want something I can actually target to buy for myself. Something that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg to buy, and if some pickpocket thinks to pick it out of my pocket, I won’t need to cry for all the hard work I put in just to buy it.
The Nokia 3500 was something I actually considered, because it packed all those features in under $200. A phone with features like those used to cost more than $200, and I think it’s really a good buy. [Read more…]

It seriously had me at the gold detail.
I told you, I’m no longer on my cellphone obsession, but as I was looking for Nokia 3500 pictures, I bumped into this beauty. And seriously, if I were Beyoncé, I would have wanted to represent the Armani phone instead of the F300, though admittedly, the F300 is also pretty sexy.
I guess the luxurious gold set in black was what got me drooling for this Armani phone. [Read more…]

Great phone, Great price. ;)
I am so not into cellular phones lately, but I had come across this phone up on Multiply.com. I just thought you’d like to know that this relatively affordable phone has pretty kick-butt features for its price. I searched for it on Google Products, and the first page results yielded a range from $174.49 at the lowest and $229 at the [believably] highest. There was a result from Detek.biz that seemed fishy because it was way out of the results’ price range at $888, so I ignored it.
- 2 MP, 1600×1200 pixels, video camera
- Java MIDP 2.0
- MP3/MP4/AAC/AAC+ player
- Stereo FM radio
- Bluetooth
- HSCSD
- GPRS
At that price, and with the funky black and colored trim design, I really think this phone is a steal. I haven’t liked Nokia phones in a long time, and I must admit that this one has finally gotten me impressed with Nokia again this time. 🙂
