This is an actual duffle bag I sell at my store, but of course I made up the little bit about the gun-toting modern american woman.

Thanks for the laugh on a hot Sunday morning. Can't imagine where you found this but love it! Reggie and Lex God said, "I need somebody strong enough to pull sleds and find bombs, yet gentle enough to love babies and lead the blind. Somebody who will spend all day on a couch with a resting head and supportive eyes to lift the spirits of a broken heart." So God made a dog.

They just don't make purse pockets for the plus's even now finding a purse to handle a folding cane and a plus size phone even the nerdy girls have issues oy the challenges (laughing lots).

If it can't fit into a back pants pocket, the phone is a deal breaker for many. The edge to edge screen and plus size form factor enables Apple to deliver huge screens for a smart phone without massively blowing up the size so nerdy males won't buy it. the disappointment will be for sighted people and the 10 R at the end of October. Its screen will look about the same as the iPhone 4, introduced in 2010.
