When Nine Inch Nails become the A*Teens

I use my iPod a lot. When I think of the most important inventions that have changed my life I would think to put it with the personal computer at the top of the list. To be truthful though it really isn’t that important thinking of things like airplanes (how else would I get to the mainland), pants, algebra, and of course the big mother – language.

So the iPod is unimportant sort of, still mine is flipping out. First one wouldn’t think of it but fitting 30GB of music on this thing is a chore, I spent an hour trying to rearrange my playlists and trying to get it so I could have all the songs I wanted on the thing. According to my iPod I’m going to be spending 13 full days listening to music. What is wrong with me? More importantly in the non-cosmic sense is that the album covers are not being displayed correctly. I try to get album covers on every piece of music I have, it is a job that may be finished at some point in the future where there are three or more hours added to the day. Still I have a lot of my songs associated with an album cover. The problem is that the iPod doesn’t display the correct cover (iTunes does) I listen to Goldfrapp and I had a Rammstien cover on screen which is kind of funny. PJ Harvey becomes all Dream Theater, Dresden Dolls was The Beatles, and my favorite was Danger Doom becoming Tori Amos Boys for Pele.

So this was my day, looking at what crazy combination there were, and making an IT presentation, and talking about Japanese Law, and learning how to hedge T-Bills, and learning some more Japanese.
