And for rural folks like us smartphones are a huge help. I've given up on regular internet for now.

The problem with all this technology is that it requires work. I like being able to flip "on" and get music. No fuss, no muss.

I have a shuffle and while it's great for listening to podcasts while I'm walking, it does require recharging and adding and deleting files ... but at least you can subscribe to the podcasts so refills are minimal effort.

Loading an ipod requires $$ and time and effort I'm not willing to give.

One of the best things the internet has brought is itunes radio which requires no effort but allows for more selected offerings to listen to for free. Wonderful.

A lot if what you can load is your own cds, totally free and legal. A shuffle has no features, really, just the ease of loading and carrying your music.

If you have a pc a shuffle and cds you should be good to go. Just put your cds into your pc itunes and select what goes into your shuffle.

How odd...the front page shows 10183 posts with the last one being from Magoseph...what happened to her post?

10185. arkymalarky - 12/25/2011 2:05:45 AM

That happens sometimes when someone looks in and hits sonething--i forget what--without actually posting.

News from Hollywood: Cheetah, the chimp from the old Tarzan movies, died today at age 85.

This cracks me up:
BBC News - US Navy rescues Iranians held hostage by pirates

Hey, every little act of kindness deserves a return!

Evidently Iran's Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi doesn't know how to be gracious and simply say, "Thank you".

10190. Wombat - 1/9/2012 3:52:09 AM

Apparently there is a lot of communication on the "tactical" level between the US and Iran (to avoid possible misunderstandings that could lead to incidents...)

Huntsman did pretty well last night in the NH primary...and I was so glad to see a major part of the easterners were able to judge Perry for what he is. But then they gave Mitt such a boost, all tempation for praise for them evaporated.

Singer Etta James, best known for the song "At Last," died Friday, her longtime friend and manager, Lupe De Leon, said.

10193. vonKreedon - 1/20/2012 8:59:21 PM

Yeah, that's been coming for a while now. I saw her perform at our zoo several years ago, excellent performance, she seemed a younger woman than her ~66 years.

10194. concerned - 3/6/2012 1:53:46 AM

I can't imagine why this Fluke-zy woman would need $3,000 of free contraceptives when she is supposed to be a co-ed in a $40,000 a year school. Is this all extracurricular activity?

Why is Bill Maher still on the air after calling Sarah Palin a 'cunt'? Or Ed Schultz after calling Laura Ingraham a 'slut'? And how about Dan Ackroyd?

Leftist Double Standard! Leftist Double Standard! Leftist Double Standard! Leftist Double Standard! Leftist Double Standard! Leftist Double Standard!

A 30 year old co-ed screaming like a 2 year old for thousands of dollars of free contraceptives. You can't imagine how impressed I am by this vile little succubus, which is probably exactly what she does each day to classes and back.

10197. iiibbb - 3/6/2012 4:05:18 AM

How do you feel about Viagra being generally covered Conc'd?

10198. iiibbb - 3/6/2012 4:10:03 AM

Thousands of dollars

lifetime I guess.

Viagra is $5 a pop... so for an active guy, that's easily the cost of contraception - later in life.

It's possible that SOC has never had sex. We know from his past writings that he has a problem with women.
