Apple:

  • Mainstreamed purchasing music online with iTunes. Now iTunes is the world's largest music store, selling more music than even Walmart.
  • Mainstreamed portable media devices with the iPod.
  • Mainstreamed smartphones with the iPhone, while making them simple enough for even the least tech-savvy people to use them.
  • iPad

Google:

  • Made it easy to find just about anything online. Yes there are other search engines, but Google is regarded as the best.
  • Although Google didn't create Youtube, they do own it and they did make it bigger and better.
  • Gmail, Google docs, and other online software they made were innovative.
  • Android

I would post one of Auburn's campus, but our football stadium is much more breath-taking. Graduated from Auburn last year.

87,451 of your closest friends are in that stadium!

I thought he'd died.

Anyways, Happy Birthday!

Nah he's alive. But he is suffering with Parkinson's and brain damage.

Probably the most recognizable athlete in human history. He floats like a butterfly, and stings like a bee.

Some would call him a warrior. Some would call him a pacifist. And some would even call him a coward.

Muhammad Ali, AKA "The Greatest" and "The Louisville Lip". He's 70 today.

Muhammad Ali
Muhammad Ali

He was the only boxer to win 3 Lineal Heavyweight Championships.

He was very vocal with his opposition to the Vietnam War. He was arrested and found guilty of draft evasion. To which he would respond, "I ain't got no quarrel with them Viet Cong. No Viet Cong ever called me Nigger". Ali's words inspired Martin Luther King Jr during the Civil Rights movement.

Today he suffers from Parkinson's and brain damage due to the severe head trauma he received as a boxer. He travels the world using his name to feed the hungry and the poor.

He retired from boxing before I was born(I'm 22). But I have watched as many of his fights as I have been able to find. To those of you who haven't watched one of his fights, I suggest you start with his three legendary fights with Joe Frazier.

I hope he lives many more years, but I hope his life gets better than it is now.

@MikeinSC: The SEC ended up 6-3, but obviously without the BCS National Championship the SEC ended up 5-2. (since the BCSNCG was SEC vs SEC)

I have one thing to say though. Congratulations Alabama. Yes I actually rooted for our most hated rival.

We're keeping the crystal ball in state. Alabama in '09, Auburn in '10, Alabama in '11. This is unprecedented for one state to hold it 3 years in a row.

Still, fuck you Alabama! We'll get you in 2012, and we'll bring the crystal ball home for the 4th consecutive year. Yall are losing a lot this year, and we're only losing 4 starters. So we'll be a strong team.

You can poison our trees, but you can't stop us from beating yall!

@Commando:

you really should use the past tense there friend.

Read my post, friend.

The fact is we were at war in Iraq, and there were hostiles ready to kill his fellow American soldiers. It was his job to protect his comrades and he did this better than any American sniper in history.

@SinGulaR: The war being right or wrong is a whole different discussion.
