Secular Seduction

by Paula Neal Mooney I see you winding and grinding up on the floor I know you see me looking at you when you already know I want to love you, love you, you already know I want to love you, love you, you already know Akon's lovely and whining and beautiful and nasally voice just filled my minivan as soon as I turned on the ignition. Yeah , I grooved along for nanoseconds to the hypnotic beat, glancing to read the screen display of "Wanna Love You" by Akon - featuring Snoop Dogg. Of course I just learned that this is the clean version of the song. The dirty version, probably played on those XL (which my husband taught me stands for "explicit" not "extra large") XM Stations I usually breeze right past these days, admits that Akon's euphemism for "love" is a lot farther away from the "agape" type of love definition.

Will Zune put a dent in Ipod sales?

A month or two ago, I was blessed to e-chat with ex-Microsoft blogger extraordinaire, Robert Scoble of the 20+ million pageview blog, Scobleizer . Back then I asked him if the new Zune was better than the Ipod. Here's what he said. And if you're thinking of buying a Zune for yourself or as a gift this Christmas, here are some accoutrements that can help Zune users download more stuff. Seeing as though I don't own either a Zune or an Ipod yet -- only a freebie Gateway MP3 player that came along with our PC that I must've left in the bathroom too long and steamed up because it only holds 5 songs now -- I can't give my honest feedback till I make enough referral money to buy either one. But if you own the new Zune, let me know how it's working for you. Bookmark or blogroll me at http://www.paulamooney.blogspot.com/ and drop back in some day to see what I'm up to next. Blessings and love, Paula Tags: zune , ipod , download , movies , music , robert , scobl...
