Two small updates

Well, my iPod came back from Apple. It's still busted. They said they couldn't fix it. Sure enough, I have a fancy, expensive paper weight. I'll try to save up to get a new one, I guess.

In other news, after a lot of internal debate, I voted for Obama. I'm surprised by the extent to which I'm coming to care about this election. Anyway, it'll be interesting to see the results come in.

What happened to it? What model?

I voted for Obama too & am following results very closely.

Wow! They only gave you a paper weight? Geez, I'm kind of surprised that they didn't give you a refund or anything. :|

When I broke my ankle at the theme park, Knott's Berry Farm (southern California) I had chipped the bone, they sent me four free tickets to the park and apologized for it happening. I joked with my family that they sent me those tickets so I could break my ankle again there. :p

I mean, some places don't realize that even though it takes away money (but hey, they still lose money by giving away free tickets or a simple paper weight) it's actually better to help people instead of giving them what they don't need. *shakes head*

Now's your chance to free yourself from the evilness of the Apple Corporation....buy Sony, they know what's best for you ;)

My headphone jack broke and Apple was going to charge me the price of a new iPod to fix it, not counting S&H. They suck...I used iPod Doctor, I think.

Sorry to hear about the iPod. :( Good luck with whatever route you decide to go in finding a replacement... I have a little nano and even though it only holds 2gig, that is waaaay more songs than I listen to during a day, and I can put new ones in at night. And though mine was a gift, I think they are a lot less expensive than the full ones... I don't listen to Podcasts though, so that may make a difference in the amount of space you need if they are your thing :)

And I too am following election results very closely... after seeing some really phenomenal speeches by Obama, he's got me hooked. Keeping my fingers crossed right with ya!

Ugh that sucks. The least they could do is give you a new one or a coupon for a new one if they couldn't fix it. :-P
