iPods Don't Kill People
I'm thinking of starting the National iPod Association, to lobby against the inevitable iPod control legislation that will pass. Okay, I suppose we could live with background checks at iPod shows, but only if they are completed quickly. No waiting periods.
Maybe we could get Marky Mark* to be president of the NIA. You know. Charlton "NRA" Heston was in Planet of the Apes. Marky Mark was in the remake of Planet of the Apes. Marky Mark isn't 107. I think it could work.
Who wants to join?
*He will always be Marky Mark to me, no matter how many movies he makes.

Well, as you can see, while you were posting your comment, I was updating the entry to suggest that the younger Marky "Planet of the Apes" Mark might be a better NIA president.

Well, since some people won't take my advice regarding posting certain suggestions as follow-up comments, I'm going to post the contents of an IM log regarding this very entry between myself and the aforementioned Bruce Jackson. The handles have been changed to protect the guilty.
Incidentally, it turns out that he did not watch MTV and know what celebrity deathmatch was. Which I knew, because he has no cable TV.

I think the National iPod Association, NiA, should form the iPod Marching Band. Then we could march in the annual DooDah Parade. All those interested in joining the NiA and the iPod Marching Band should contact Lesley at the House of Plum. This will be great, the first ever iPod Marching Band!
