:...WIGGLE YOUR THUMBS, girls..."
.i'm 'uptaking' the ipod, wii, and laptop television, transitioning gecknologically from video tape, dvd, and satellite tv. i couldn't master the ipod after six serious attempts over four days, so i tossed it to my sigother, and he handles it. i couldn't connect with the 'thumbtwirling" (literally twirlling your thumbs)-stype of navigation (maybe i have too much invested in finger clicking?).... a sort of "spinning around of the thumb on the big ringed spongy button in the "face" of the ipod, right below the screen (i can't even read the screen without maginifying lenses, but i did enjoy watching Madonna's new video as a podcast...bump bumb bump bumb bump bum.) The round thumbtwirling pad also allows clicks and scrolls; and apparently NOW, "scrolling" also means to drag your thumb along the thumbspinning thing . so...wiggle your thumbs, ladies, and let's get our rockin'on........sigh.

But, i was able to uptake my new wii immediately , and with abandon and glee, for amost instantaneous physical and mental improvment. get you one and get your volly on. I've asked santa baby for a "wii fit" addon, for christmas. our modem's wall wart quit. suckers. and such is life in domes.
