Siri is a girl's best friend

This holiday season, let me give you a little shopping advice.

Women don't want more slippers, bad perfume or scarves, and despite what the commercials say, no jewelry, please. We can't afford it anyhow. And we're not buying that the ginormous TV is for us.

What women really want this year is a cheeky little vixen named Siri.

"My new best friend,Ed hardy clothing online store, whether you are looking for fashion items, then you come to the right place, we offer a variety of womenboots.2011 New Style Jeans pumashoes on sale with fast delivery!" "a blessing" and "loyal assistant" are the ways some women have described Siri, the voice-controlled,If you are looking wear to buy sexy sellingshoes the you have arrive. personal assistant on the iPhone 4S.

Women want her. They covet her. They've even told me they "lust after her."

"I would love to have her," Janet Vander Ley told me at an Apple store the other day. She looked at her sad, little iPhone 3, which will never house Siri. "My 16-year-old son has her. We got him the 4S. … He asks her questions all day long."

What would Janet do with Siri?

"Oh, I know you could ask her to make reservations, schedule appointments, get directions," she sighed. "She'd be so useful in my life."

And yes, the program is a she. That was made quite clear to me by another woman in the store when I asked her how she liked "it."

"Siri is a she," said the woman, a federal worker and mother of two teens. "She's my new best friend."

Of course. Who else but a best friend would tell you, when you ask about the meaning of life, that "all evidence to date suggests it's chocolate"?

A good deal of Siri's energy will be spent answering questions like that.

Mostly, by men.

Late-night host Conan O'Brien made that point just a few days after Siri made her appearance, in a sketch that spliced Apple's own scenes of women asking Siri to remind them to buy milk, or for directions to a hospital, with two recliner kings asking her to make "reservations for two at 7 p.m. between your breasts" and so forth.

Siri has a sense of humor designed to deal with men's raunchy questions. When dorks ask her to talk dirty to them, she responds: "Humus. Compost. Pumice. Silt. Gravel.valuableedhardy Running Shoe Flex grooves in the mid and outsole for flexibility ."

And when she is asked, "What are you wearing?" she responds, "Why do people keep asking me this?"

Obviously, this is designed to deal with Man Humor. Women, of course, would ask her who she is wearing.Paintings for sale edhardyshoes buy paintings original painting art.
