So today my iPod died. It was on the nose 18mo old. I do believe this is exactly the date everyone else has said they typically dope out on you.

Keep in mind I have no right to be mad. I actually got this thing for free. Actually I got the 20Gig for free and I forked out the $70 to upgrade it to the 40 before I opened the box. Thanks again FreeiPods.com. Apparently somewhere amidst my scamming as well as being one of the fortunate early adopters of the free ipod scam, I was smart enough to purchase the extended warranty. At least according to Apple I did. (I don’t remember).

So off to the store, and a short 15 minutes later (genius guy needed to fill out a mighty amount of paperwork). I now have a brand new 40Gig iPod. I only wish they had upgraded, but touche I still get a new one with another 18mo to live. I might even buy an extended/extended warranty just to cover my ass again.

I certainly can smell the faint smell of pipe tobacco. Praise Dobbs!!
