And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I use the "in-ear" buds that Dana linked to, and I love them. They have rubber covers that come in three sizes so you can pick the ones that are best for your ears.

From the weird news section of the local paper:
FRESNO, Calif. -- Authorities say they've arrested a man who broke into the home of two California farmworkers, stole money, rubbed one with spices and whacked the other with a sausage before fleeing.
Fresno County sheriff's Lt. Ian Burrimond says 22-year-old Antonio Vasquez was found hiding in a field wearing only a T-shirt, boxers and socks after the Saturday morning attack.
He says deputies arrested Vasquez after finding a wallet containing his ID in the ransacked house.
The farmworkers told deputies the suspect woke them Saturday morning by rubbing spices on one of them and smacking the other with an 8-inch sausage.
Burrimond says money allegedly stolen was recovered.
When I was working news, I would have paid money to be able to use the phrase "whacked with a sausage".

It sounds like Tony Bourdain saw Rachel Ray once too often and he snapped.

That link doesn't show anything, Dana.
It did for me -- maybe I got in before the store was put in stasis pre-Steve Jobs speech.
And thanks, amych and Dana (and Jess for the confirmation of the ear-friendliness of the Apple buds). I have an Apple store across the street from my office, but it's in a mall t spits so I try to avoid it like the Black Death. Maybe I'll make an exception.
