Comment:

So my friend just got her brand new 60g video iPod this week and was all excited to start loading it with songs & pictures & videos. Except that she has computer troubles, can get the computer to recognize it, we can't figure it out.
So as a joke I decided to give a replacement for the time being==A Brand New $10 walkman (not Sony), complete to remember the days before mP3 players took over the world. This is the tape that I included with it. And a hand doodled tape cover(picture).

From Grandaddy to Ben Harper, by way of The Flaming Lips, Ben Fold's Five and many excellent points inbetween. Thoroughly enjoyable. "Super Awesome.." is, in this case a remarkably apt title.

Love the story of the failed iPod being replaced by old (reliable) technology!
