...the iPod party! But at last, I'm here. 
I finally have an iPod to call my very own and I just now learned how to spell it. Small i, big P, no hyphen and it's a beautiful Indigo color.
Not being very tech inclined, I haven't figured out all the features but I have just set my playlist:
Beethoven, Bill Evans, Cannonball Adderley, Charles Mingus, Charlie Christian, Chick Corea, Bela Fleck, Chopin, Debussy, Dolly Parton, Erykah Badu, Frank Zappa, John Lennon, Joni Mitchell, Led Zeppelin, Liszt, Medeski, Martin & Wood, Miles Davis, Mozart, Paul McCartney, Paul Simon, Pearl Jam, Phish, Pixies, Sarah Vaughan, Schubert, Schumann, Tori Amos.
I feel so cool and modern right now. Maybe in 10 years, I'll get an iPhone and I can call you while you're driving around in your flying car!
But now, I must take a top secret phone call from an anxious Ginger and then Sheepytime!
P.S. If you see Lynn Drury, wish her luck! Bonne chance! She's off for more gigs in Europe and Valentine's Day in France. 
Sweet! C'est fantastique! Lynn, s'il vous plait, apportez moi du chocolat.
