A very scary thing befell my beautiful green iPod nano yesterday. I just got it for Christmas from my love (thanks, Baby!) and have already grown quite attached to it.
So the story goes, I was babysitting my little niece and she needed to go to the bathroom. After a few minutes I was summonded for clean-up duty as she proudly announced she had gone both pee AND poo. So I lean over her and the toilet bowl for the dirty work, and splash! my brand new Christmas nano which was just in my shirt pocket is swimming among the fish, so to speak.
I yank the thing out and instinctively throw it in the sink where it recieves a nice long shower. After all that water the electronic device is clean all right, but but the display shows nothing but garbled lines and squibbles. No sound comes out of the earbuds, either. Man! I already ruined my iPod! And the iPhone doesn't come out until June. Oh fate, how shall I possibly survive... Desperate, I shake it, blow in it, put it in front of a heater to try and get the water out.
And then, suddenly, it happens. I am quite sure what I hear is a faint, but distinctively high-pitched "Hoooooooowww-dee ho!" I turn the iPod on again, and lo and behold, it is healed! Working perfectly, display, sound, scroll wheel and all.
Looks like Mr. Hankey might have had some leftovers of Chef's Chocholate Salty Balls...
-What?!
