My iPod

You may not know this about me, but I am addicted to my iPod. Mostly to podcasts. In The Titan's Curse, by Rick Riordan, Apollo is obsessed with haikus. He says this one on page 155:
Dreams like a podcast
downloading truth in my ears.
They tell me cool stuff.
(I never said it was good.) But I love that haiku. I quote it all the time. My brother, on the other hand, likes the music on my iPod. Harry and The Potters, Billy Joel, Survivor and Elvis are just a few of his requests (except for Harry and the Potters, which was mine).
For a few harrowing days, it was lost! I was traumatized, you better believe it. But now that I have it back, I am going podcast crazy.
I doubt you care. Neither do I! I just wanted to do a quote of the day.
Quote for July 21, 2009:
One may live as a conqueror, a king, or a magistrate; but he must die as a man.
-Daniel Webster, from Dictionary of Burning Words of Brilliant Writers, page 173
