Ipod Takes A Bullet
Kevin Garrad’s Kevlar body armor stopped a bullet, but not before it destroyed his iPod. You can read the full story here:
This reminds me of the bible that I saw in a WWII museum that stopped a bullet for a soldier. As a child, I was told that the bible stopped the bullet because God was protecting the soldier. What does that mean about the iPod?
Thank you, our holiness, Steve Jobs, for protecting our soldier’s life with your abundant and fervent technology. Thank you also for not asking whether I wanted my music folders screwed up by iTunes and for saving the original photo after I drew all over it using iPhoto. I accept your will regarding file management, photo protection and musical armor. Please spare me as you have spared others.

Which makes you wonder? What was this idiot doing with an iPod in the field anyway? Good way to get shot and killed. Is it standard for soldiers to go out into the field listening to music? If so, is it any wonder the body toll mounts?
