Purddy Colors

Ahoy!

I have seen the light…and its displayed in 65,536 glorious colors. Please allow me to introduce iPodicus, my new 30 GB iPod Photo. That’s right boys and girls, I have shed the confines of my previous colorless 15 GB iPod and upgraded into the realm of iPod goodness. iPodicus can hold about 7,500 songs and a butt load of photos. Also known as enough room to do backstrokes. The nifty thing about iPodicus is that you can hook him up to a TV and do a photo slide show with music playing in the background. One other cool feature is how you can put the album cover next to the song currently playing. I mention this in passing because I didn’t have any of the covers associated with the 2500+ songs I currently have. Guess what I’ll be doing over Spring Break? That and trying out the photo functionality. w00t w00t, l33t, l33t!

I’ll also mention that Artie added an iPod Shuffle to his empire of Apple products. His goes by the name of Brudder…Li’l Brudder. Please note that this in no way is me approving the use of Apple products. I love my PC. I love in job. In fact, the two go together. So please remember that for every PC that is sold, that means I have just a little bit more job security. Thank you!

In other news, Tallahassee is emptying out this week for Spring Break. I won’t use any “going to the bathroom” analogies this time to describe that process. Most of my Tally friends are still in town but I’ll be losing them to the beach and hometowns over the course of the week. Alas…lonely will be me.

Other than that, I hope that everyone has a Happy Monday…where ever you are. Check back tomorrow and I’ll tell you the amazing story (not really) how I came about my new iPod.

“Some beach somewhere, There’s a big umbrella casting shade over an empty chair. Palm trees are growing, warm breeze is blowing, I picture myself right there, on some beach somewhere.” – Blake Shelton – ‘Some Beach’

I pity the fool that doesn’t take a bath.

Christina, this game is for you.

    Lil Brudder wants to know if Ipodicus can come over to play this afternoon.

    He may be small and, well, very much lacking in colors, but he does have the heart of a champion. He has about as many features as the real Lil Brudder, but he does play nicely.

    On a side note, if you are reading this website, I am looking for a better name for my older ipod. Ipodcalypse is a little too on the “the world is coming to an end” side. So, if you have any suggestions, please let me know.

    d’oh.

    Somehow I just erased my comment. Allow me to summarize:

    1. I suggest that you donate your old iPod to a worthy cause–namely, my cause ;)

    2. The Lil Brudder episode is my very favorite of all of Strongbad’s e-mails. It’s so dang funny, everytime I see it! I’m glad to you posted the link–uber cool points to you, Joshua Starling!

  3. Artie, thank u Joshua — March 07, 2005 #

    Hey Joshua,
    Thanks for not slacking off on your website just because people are gone to beaches and other places without computers. Your loyal readers are glad that you continue to give us healthy postings even during spring break. Its makes my work day a little nicer.
    Thanks.

  7. Artie — March 07, 2005 #

    Hey Capt’n why you haterize ipodicus, man?

  8. Sweet Melissa — March 07, 2005 #

    Josh….. I am SO VERY SORRY about calling you so late the other night. Please forgive me. ~melissa

  9. Capt' Matt — March 07, 2005 #

    I’m not even gonna front i’m jealous. thats all

  10. big daddy C-14 — March 07, 2005 #

    hey captain, you never told me athens had hookers!!! what’s up with that?

  11. Artie — March 07, 2005 #

    Yo comprendo Capt Matt. I have to say that ipodicus is indeed a sweet little item. I saw the colors and my eyes grew big and my mouth slowly dropped the words “I…want…one…too.” But, I’ll stand by my lil brudder. He has, not color, but the heart of a champion.

  12. Capt' Matt — March 07, 2005 #

    Loom we know athens has hookers, former DE and current nfl player Charles Grant (he’s from Miller co) got arrested while in school here for trying to pick one up. too she was an undercover cop

  13. Capt' Matt — March 07, 2005 #

    i have no clue what the 1st word of my las post is suppose to be

  14. big daddy C-14 — March 07, 2005 #

    oh…those kinds of hookers. i thought they were talking about those guys at the marina you hire to keep bait on your hooks while you fish. dangit. you got to tell me this stuff before you get me excited, geez!

    in other news, i am also envious of ipodicus and brudder for that matter. i’m still stuck in a world ravaged with cds, cassettes, and (my all-time favorite) eight tracks. oh how i long for an all-digital world…

    oh holy crap….I was in heaven….the sound effects do it for me man…being in this crazy dry weather has brought some new ones out on my face and I had the joy of popping a new one this morning….whoever is with me, yell “Puss on the mirror rules!!!!!!!”

  16. Joshua — March 07, 2005 #

    Puss on the mirror rules!!!11!!1!!!!1!!!!!

    I heard the phone ring the other night and I thought, poor Joshua, he’s getting called into work at 2am or something bad has happened to somebody. What a mean practical joke to play on somebody.
