You know, I've saved lives. Dozens. Maybe hundreds. I reattached a girl's leg. Her whole leg. She named her hamster after me. I got a hamster. He drops a box of money, he gets a town.

Coding and Sleeping

I have no iPod.

It's okay. I have no iPod as well.

Apart from sports, "my secret favorite thing on earth is ketchup. I will put ketchup on anything. But it has to be Heinz." - my husband, Michael Vartan

The one thing I don't get about iPod is why it is named that. The pod part makes me think of "Invasion of the Body Snatchers." But that movie was a lot less stylish and pink.

Also, iPods are awesomer than the other brands, but the other brands will pretty much do what you want them to, if all you're looking for is something to play mp3's, as far as I know.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Is there really a significant difference between the Apple, and the Dell or the Rio mp3 players?

Yes. iPods are much easier to use (based on several reviews I've read). iPods also dominate the market, so there are many more acessories for the iPod than other players. Plus the iTunes music store is generally considered to be the best on-line music store and the iPod is the only player that can play music downloaded from the iTunes music store.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I almost ordered an iPod Shuffle in a fit of enthusiasm yesterday. Then I found out that I'll probably have to buy a new stove instead.

Maybe I can combine my needs and find a stove that plays MP3 files?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I would not say no if someone wanted to buy me an iPod, but I don't have any read interest in one. It seems like a lot of work and fiddling.

Also, in a note to the universe in general, I cannot make 562 =605.

Your lack of imagination makes me sad.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Can anyone name a sitcom (or any television show) set in San Diego? How about Denver?

Simon and Simon was in San Diego.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Dynasty was also in Denver.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Plus the iTunes music store is generally considered to be the best on-line music store and the iPod is the only player that can play music downloaded from the iTunes music store.

I agree about the iPod interface, but as far as I can tell, Musicmatch has exactly the same inventory as iTunes.

Art Crawl!!!

Everwood isn't in Denver! It's in Everwood. A fictional CO small town.

I believe that Macleod in NYC? Wasn't that where the funny came in?
