Funnily enough there's a Northern Exposure episode with a brief Twin Peaks parody. I think it was Russian Flu in season one. Joel and Elaine are on a trip, and they're shown around an area with a waterfall and viewing platform, li

There's a conversation Chris has in an episode called Heal Thyself, I think, where Maggie buys a washer dryer and won't need to go to the laundromat anymore. Chris reflects that in the future we won't need a lot of things tha

I like the app: the UI is amazing! I hope to see some technical posts about Swift on the Snappymob blog. I have a small suggestion. I think the homepage copy would work better if you edited some of the clichés: "Make the app your own&
