What they meant to say was that the iPod flows with gusto and verve, with nuanced palpability that is suprisingly smooth and spacious, with harmonic undertones that languidly coil around your nerve endings and deliver liquid bliss combined with in-your-face bravado and euphonic outlines, providing a sonic womb with a sugar-sweet coating of midbass impedance resonance." -One Louder "Is the McMahon family normal?" -Michael Cole {WWE Smackdown!} "Do not stop whisking at this point, or sadness will result." -Alton Brown {Good Eats} "It's bad for whales to get extincted.
