Apple Stock Gets Whiff of Fart Apps

When we started this blog we told you that stocks and the stock market are at the center of our culture and we promised to bring you serious lessons and fun tidbits. Put this one into the fun tidbit category.

This week, Wired.com reported that an Apple Director was caught approving some of his own apps. Sounds improper but the funny part sure to get water cooler discussion will be some of the apps that he’s developed such as Animal Farts and iWiz.

The first app displays the back end of an animal of your choice and lets you trigger various events. The iWiz gives you control of sounds so you can fool your friend in the next stall that you have the biggest bladder in the universe.

I’m sure his mother and those of you who have bought one share of Apple stock from us are so proud!
