Foo you, and the horse you rode in on!

So, here I am with my fancy new blog, which is very kindly hosted by my friend Kevin. I am, as might be expected, tinkering with the UI and having a grand time. I am a Usability Engineer & UI designer by trade so it is physically impossible for me to accept something straight out of the box! Anyway, I decide to multitask while I am learning to use MoveableType & CSS. Aside from petting a demanding cat, I am ripping the huge stack of CDs that have accumulated over the past months to my computer and thence onto my iPod. Imagine my suprise, nay my chagrin, no, no, no… my outright anger when I get to the new Foo Fighters CD and it will not let me copy onto my iPod. It is forcing me to use the WMA format, which the iPod does not recognize. I am sure there are some computery-type gymnastics that I can employ to get the songs onto my iPod but I just don’t have the energy to a) find the magic work-around and 2) carry out said work-around. :::sigh::: I’m gonna go have a good 5 minute pout :)
