I-POD Takeover!

I-POD Takeover!

Hmmmmm, do you think Apple buying up every ad space in the subways of NYC have anything to do with the new social malaise, I-POD MANIA? I just want the world to know that I had a first generation I-Pod, i.e. Before they were cool and before white head-phones grew out of everyone's head. I had an I-Pod before I moved to NYC. I had an I-Pod before I met Kenyatta--beautiful man who knows everything about technology and macs. I has an I-Pod before CD plebians and MP3 wannabes looked at me with curious confusion. I had an I-Pod before people stopped listening to their CD's. I had an I-Pod before they made a million add-ons like voice recorders and remote vibrators. I had an I-Pod before fashion designers created chic mink cases.

Yes world, hear my declaration! I loved you I-Pod when no one else would. I loved you when you were the new kid on the block. I loved you when you were still an unseasoned lover. I loved you when you would crash in the middle of a song. I loved you when white was plain-i opened myself to your white headphones. I took you in as you were. So why is that when I was so loyal to you - you decided to replicate yourself to the entire city of NYC!
