And to think, my very cousin is a lord high muckety-muck with the BlackBerry company, and all I get are blackberry vines all around. Husband made a lovely pie last weekend, though, of just-picked berries and windfall apples.
I’ll admit: I bit. The title of your post came up before the photo, and in the course of the nanosecond it took to download, I had this series of thoughts:
Bossy! That’s hardly being poverty-conscious! But you DO have lots of people with whom to communicate, so maybe you can write it off as a business expense, but still, I wish you hadn’t caved to the …
Blah, blah, blah. In a NANOSECOND, I tell you! That much crap ran through my head.
Then I saw the pretty fruit and rejoiced. For many reasons.
Ha, Bossy got me on that one. I was going to scream “Poverty Party!” at Bossy if she really had a BlackBerry.
But, on the subject the BlackBerry, there’s something that’s been bothering me for quite some time. Is the plural of BlackBerry, BlackBerrys or BlackBerries?
We are addicted to blackberries here. Can’t walk the dog without her stopping and sniffing out some more to eat! Gotta be much better for us than the other kind of blackberry.

August 27, 2009 at 8:23 amAhhh, a perfect specimen! And good for the ol’ poverty party too!!
Now, how do you tweet on that thing?

August 27, 2009 at 8:38 amblackberries are so much more enjoyable than BlackBerries.

August 27, 2009 at 8:43 amHave no access to either. No point in the former… they don’t work in the sticks!!!
Nice bokeh BTW.

August 27, 2009 at 9:13 amYour version is cheaper, more nutritious and makes a much better pie than the other kind! Nice cuticles! Wish mine looked that good!

August 27, 2009 at 10:42 amHere’s how 2001 I am…when I saw the headline, I actually did think of a blackberry. As in, the fruit.
David says
August 27, 2009 at 11:00 amI was about to get all “that bitch gets way too much free shite” until the picture loaded. Ya got me, I admit it.

Momo Fali says
August 27, 2009 at 1:35 pmI love my Blackberry so much that I want to marry it. It’s the internet in my palm! Someday, Bossy. Someday.
junebug says
August 27, 2009 at 2:00 pmTasty. And nutritious too.
Grandma J says
August 27, 2009 at 2:43 pmBossy should ask her cell provider for a free upgrade to a blackberry. That’s how grandma J got her blackjack, and she loves it.
Scottsdale Girl says
August 27, 2009 at 2:56 pmYes free upgrades are the new black…berry.
Sofia says
August 27, 2009 at 3:09 pmMmmmm, all you need is a few more with which to make pie. Or to have with yogurt. Or ice cream.
dgm says
August 27, 2009 at 3:12 pmThat looks more like the Blackberry Pearl.
ZDub says
August 27, 2009 at 3:16 pmI have the BlackBerry Storm and it’s a piece o’ crap.
I like your BB better because I bet it doesn’t ring, chime or chirp every two seconds.
Mary Alice says
August 27, 2009 at 3:19 pmAnd unlike others you can bake your blackberry and serve it with ice cream.
joeinvegas says
August 27, 2009 at 3:48 pmBet it’s not around any more.
Grizzly Kitteh says
August 27, 2009 at 4:18 pmMmmm… A couple cups of those and you can have delicious pie. I filled a 1/4 of a bucket the other day and had enough for like 3 pies.
kate says
August 27, 2009 at 6:16 pmif you can’t make a pie with it, who cares?
Happily Employed Susan says
August 27, 2009 at 8:12 pmThat looks exactly like my hand and my sensible manicure.

August 27, 2009 at 9:56 pmI was so worried when I saw the title, I was afraid I’d be the last one with a Flintstones phone… whew! I love THAT kind of Blackberry.

August 27, 2009 at 11:17 pmGood choice. The other one is more like work, this one is more like yum!
Just Jamie says
August 27, 2009 at 11:53 pmBut the iPhone is tasty too.
(“They” made me say that.)
L says
August 28, 2009 at 1:40 amBossy, You have such a pretty hand.
Rabbi's wife says
August 28, 2009 at 4:27 amI miss blackberries. Will you send me some in Israel, please?
Texas Susan says
August 31, 2009 at 10:32 amEat the blackberry; get an iPhone!
