As usual, I'm very late on the technology train, but this iPod thing is pretty amazing. JDog got me an iPod shuffle as a wedding gift for being the bestest best man ever and (after the requisite month of trying to figure out how it works before handing it off to Joe to make it work for me), I've finally got the thing up and kicking.
I went running with it yesterday and I've got to tell you - that little thing rocks my socks off my ass. It's like a whole new world. Nothing, and I mean NOTHING, gets you through that first four laps like Britney's "Toxic." Also, Fooled By April's new song "Building for the Breakdown" is a great jogging pace as you head for that two-mile mark. I even listened to a little Scamper - "Sophie" soared into my ears as I collapsed on the ground and had to be defribulated. The EMTs, however, seemed partial to "Wait Wait." They also stole my wallet.
You know to what else I was listening? That's right - the Beatles. It sounds great through the iPod, but it will sound even better coming from our mouths and fingers (and in Mike's case, his balls) at the Abbey Lounge tomorrow night. We're on early, so come... early.

there was a moment, when i thought the iPod shuffle was a new dance.
May i have that comma, stacy? You don't need it.
Big grammar talk from someone who doesn't capitalize their "I".
And yes - I am aware that last one was a sentence fragment.
I love my ipod I can run on the treadmill to FXA, Scamper and Orange Park all while watching the sox game. Technology is great even if I dont really know how it works.
Can I ask what is the difference between the iPod and a plain old MP3 player? I've had an MP3 player for a long time - it's small and sleek, and holds tons of MP3s. Isn't that the same thing iPod does?
Before someone tries to make a fool out of me, I would just like to add that I do know that iPod IS an MP3 player, it's just a brand.
I thought you weren't supposed to run with an mp3 player with a hard drive, that it can do bad things to it. Or is that just being overprotective?
On the topic of ipods, no lie: my itunes and ipod took it upon themselves to list that they contain a song by Madonna called You Must Love Me. Being that I (i'm sorry) just would not have downloaded such a thing, you can imagine my amusement when i clicked play to get to the bottom of this and discovered it to be a premix version of Sophie by Scamper that apparently iTunes decided was madonna. Silly itunes.
