Lately, my brother Minute Man and I have had iPods on the brain. He's in love with an iPod girl at his work, and I'm actually in love with the iPod itself. The reason? SHUFFLE.
We both have many MP3s (all legally purchased, if you're reading this, FBI,) and are both tired of making countless mix CDs. We've probably spent enough money on CD-Rs in the last 6 years to buy 10 iPods, including an entire line of iPod clothing, plus the iPod dream house and the iPod Ken with karate grip.
The problem is, however, that iPods are extremely expensive. The product has taken on a mythic quality, like it's something more than it is. We even saw a picture on the internet the other day of President Bush listening to an iPod-everyone has one but us! But really, all it is is just an MP3 player. A really really large capacity MP3 player.
And while we're on the topic, what kind of music is on W's iPod, do you think? Country music? Patriotic songs? What would a president listen to? We all know that Clinton liked Fleetwood Mac, but Kid Rock and The Ramones are the only Republican bands I know, and it's doubtful that W is getting his morning bike ride on to the strains of "Bawahdibah" or "Judy is a Punk." If anyone can find out, write in and you'll win a prize...uh....a free pen from the Liberty's Kids secret compound.
But back to iPods, it seems like they're everywhere and that they keep on growing. There's iPod minis now, as well as the newly released iPod shuffle, which is just like a keychain with a 'start' button on it. No thanks-I don't want to randomly wait through 2,000 songs to get to "Take on Me."
So the question is, how far will iPods go? Is it conceivable that we could see iPod remote controls that randomly change the channel for you? How about iPod cologne dispensers that emit a different scent onto you every day? The possibilities are endless.
