Today is the day that Barack Obama is to be inaugerated as US President. Typically, the newspapers today are filled with references to bulletproof glass, security arrangements, anti-sniper measures, armoured cars and bulletproof vests. It seems that there are a considerable number of rednecked, right wing, racist, shit for brains idiots in the US who just can’t stomach the idea of a black president.
Thank goodness these gurning, vacuous, mindless, banjo pluckers wouldn’t know what to do with an iPhone, as a new app has appeared in the Apple appstore that has a much more serious function than all those aforementioned that do little more than make farting, belching and puking noises. I refer to Bulletflight, which is described as a ballistics computer.
This handy little app will allow the potential sniper to set-up a shot according to the target’s distance, wind speed, altitude and air pressure. Modes for ballistics calculations and bullet weight also feature. Nice to see a more practical application appearing for a change 
While our sniper is waiting for his target to arrive, he could pass the time using one of the many shooting and sniping games available for the iPhone. One that impressed me uses photos of dodgy looking guys with beards threatening innocent christians in a window of a nearby building, you just line up the crosshairs and blammo! Or there is always iWeapons which has sounds for everything from a slap, through a mallet and up to a machine gun or chainsaw.
Now that’s entertainment.
