The dangerous iPod

Man, I'm getting tired of those fucking "ear buds"! Whoever designed them must have some very strange ears. Who do they fit? Two percent of humans?

I think I'm going with these Sony earphones, which are 1/3 the cost of the top-of-the-line mid-line Etymotic ER-6i Isolator Earphones. (I don't even want to know how much top-of-the-line earphones cost.)

The other dangerous thing about the iPod, other than the money you spend on it, is the earwig risk. That's the risk of getting a song stuck in your head, and this week it's the B-52's The Deadbeat Club. I had never really listened to it before, and I liked it so I hit replay. Now I can't get it out of my head. Good thing it's a good song.
