Fipod


Once upon a time a wee girl, we'll call her Mary, went to eBay and looked for an ipod, the new gadgety thing that everyone has. Well Mary thought it would be cool to be like everyone else, and have an ipod; she had even planned what she'd have engraved on the back, "Maryitschka." So Mary eventually won an ipod, she was paying $88 for a 2GB nano, she was a very happy wee girl and excited about receiving it in the mail.
About three days later, it came in the mail. As Mary opened the mailing box all appeared to be present and correct. It was the tiny wee ipod box, said Apple Computers and everything, unfortunately, when Mary looked at the ipod itself, it was not an ipod, but infact a fipod! (Fake ipod for those who aren't hip, LOL) Thankfully the sellers were good people and are accepting a return. Mary however is now uncool and ipod-less...

How embarrassing, so glad this isn't me, that would be a red neck! LOL (In my defense when you type in "ipod" into the eBay search all items that name ipod in the listing come up, so if it has an ipod case, which this did, you get them too!) I felt like I'd been had, it was my mistake, what a silly muppet.

Oh well, I'll just keep singing to myself... "Wee chookie birdie, to ra lo ra lo..."

I am glad Mary got her return! Also...her singing is great...being "cool" is highly over-rated! Come, join the fun uncool crowd....it's growing every year. ;)
