"You Were iFucked"
Yeah so this Saturday after reluctantly waiting the 3+ hours for my car to receive it's 'intermediate' maintainance (side note: someone pls tell me that the $200 I paid for injector and throttle body cleaning was necessary and feel free to resort to lying to me) I headed up to the city to try and grab some time at SFMOMA with the ArtCasts loaded onto my iPod Mini.
When I drop the casts onto my mini I made certain to properly disconnect the mini from my computer. After which I got into my car and plugged in my RoadTrip only to find that my iPod mini was not turning on. The clock was ticking and the museum closed at 5:45pm I figured I'd just continue on with the journey in the hopes that I could remember the iPod reset key combination along the way.
No such iLuck.
With mobile phone in hand I somewhat franticly started dialing anyone that I could think of that also had an iPod and might either remember the reset sequence or be near a computer with internet connection and willing to look it up for me. As I walked out of the Metreon parking garage it occured to me that within a 5 block radius of the Metreon and SFMOMA there had to be at least 10-20 people in possession of a iProduct and if things really got bad I could just try to make a new friend and get some iInfo that way. Fortunately, I got hold of Erik who was kind enough to look up the reset sequence just as I was coming up on the museum.
Unfortunately, strike two with the iLuck. My mini would not turn on and as my friend Deb pointed out to me later that evening I was 'iFucked'.
Have to try for artcasts next week as the mini seemed to be happy to be reset once plugged into my G5.
iWhatever.

=v= I can reassure you, by drawing on my vast knowledge of car thingamabobs, that injector and throttle body cleaning are very important things to do, and well worth $200. And a pony.

Thank you for the sweet lies, they warm the cockles of my heart :-)
