My Alibi

Personal Apprentice

Dependable, Loyal, Cheap! Behind every great man or woman is an uncomplaining blindly loyal assistant. Until now, only real estate moguls, rock stars, or execs could afford a flunky of their own. But now you too can have a "Personal Apprentice" to cater to your every whim.

My good Friend since 3rd grade decided that I needed a little help keeping my work (of the school type) under control. My briefcase (back-pack) was often in disarray, files (binder) poorly orginised. My staff (friends/minions... same thing)... *sigh* Enough said. Now, normally my friends, Amy, was haired (begged) to help out and be my secretary, but being a busy beaver that she was, simply didn't have time for me. So to remedy the situation she gave me on my 17th birthday a "Personal Apprentice". About an inch tall, this wind-up robot came with 10 inspirational cards (trivia cards), a serving tray (it could hold a penny), 32 page book (of nonsense) and a pencil (small and broken) courtesy of Amy. Oh, joy!

If this was about sixty times the size, and not so weirdly retro-boxy looking, it might go from "weird gift" to "best gift ever."

Yea, but too bad Honda's Asimo can only be gifted by billionaires. The thing costs $100,000 a month, but only costs like $900,000 to make. Not to mention it takes 3 hours to charge and can only walk at a grandmotherly pace for 40 minutes. Thats like winding that toy for 3 turns and only getting 1 step of sweet delicious satisfaction.
