Looking to save some cash on your phone bill? Sascha Segan at PC Mag had $35 dollars taken off his phone bill and I’ll tell you how he did it. In order to get these discounts, you will have to be very bold with your carrier and make threats that you wouldn’t otherwise make. Remember, you are trying to tap into the customer retention plans and processes that carriers have in place to keep your business. If you don’t come across as frustrated and willing to walk away from it all, you’ve lost your ability to properly negotiate.
Doug and I just finished a solid round of Zombie Attack! by IUGO and his score is ridiculous. At first I thought that it was the best score that anyone has ever had on Zombie Attack! I mean, his score was 3529. Nothing could possibly top that right? Well I was checking out the forums and it turns out hyk from the touchArcade forums got 4096! I’ve posted his screenshot above, which shows his score just before he died. Amazing! My hat goes off to this guy. I’ll quote his story below for your enjoyment. Nice one hyk!

Well I’m back from the holidays. I’ve been in upstate New York with family for the past week so things have been really lackluster on QB. That’s okay though because the Internet is fairly dead around this time of year. Is anyone following World Junior Hockey? Latvia is playing Sweden right now in my hometown.

So I’m going to assume nobody is on the Internet today because they’re all getting ready for a giant turkey feast. Here are some interesting turkey and Thanksgiving facts you might find interesting.
Ben Franklin, in a letter to his daughter, proposed the turkey as the official United States bird.
In 2007, the average American ate 17.5 pounds of turkey.
In 2007, 271,685,000 turkeys were produced in the United States.
The heaviest turkey ever raised was 86 pounds, about the size of a large dog.
The male turkey is called a tom.
The female turkey is called a hen.
Forty-five million turkeys are eaten each Thanksgiving.
So in celebration of the most glutinous holiday there is, let’s go for 60 million turkeys this Thanksgiving!
