On my way home from work, I was listening to the radio and I wound up having to sit through a few minutes of celebrity “news.” (Don’t blame me; the radio doesn’t work right!) Anyway, one of the items of “news” was about how Paris Hilton had been banned from Germany’s Octoberfest due to the clothing that she wore to last year’s Octoberfest. For one thing, I have to wonder how famous one has to be to have their fashion choices remembered a year later. For another, I wondered whether the Germans were actually offended by Paris Hilton or whether they were banning her because they hate her for the same nonreasons as the average American.

I’ve thought about getting one, but I think that I would be happiest with something that allows me to hook up my iPod. That way I have total control over the playlist! Thanks for reading and commenting. I appreciate it!
