Cognito ergo pod

Having popped out not long before man first stepped on the moon, I am 35 today. 35 - never had a truffle, never poached a whole salmon, never roasted a goat - but who cares I now have an iPod. An iPOD! did you hear that, an iPod, oh hello Mr. Tree did you know it can hold 5000 songs, Good Morning Mrs. Bird - look it can organise songs by genre...

I'm the luckiest boy in the world...oh no.

Gem gem gemini - peas in a pod.

Based on the high level Mac based convo on Wednesday -"exchanging" would be pretty flattering for me. Looking forward to bludging off your knowledge base.

Must get home - it's sitting there fully charged, waiting...

John

I've had iTunes for a while but now I'm mobile. Joy! I've a very short attention span and find decisions difficult so massive random playlists are heaven for me.

Thanks, will have great day, all the best in transferring those records - you'll eventually have the best of both worlds.

Ha! Thank you! Now I get to explain the tortured logic process I go through. Started with "I think therefore I am" - "I" think iPod, then I thought well "I think therefore Pod" which didn't quite get there. So I thought of the false back formation of incognito and what a pretentious git I am with me pod.
