iTunes meme!

[jlh]

Okay, seriously, TRL awards? Well, at least they're just doing them at the TRL studio without a lot of fuss. And I think they told people if they won, like the People's Choice Awards, so they'd show up. Apparently last year they gave Brad Pitt a "Biggest Star Who Hasn't Been on TRL" award and it worked; he showed up. Now they're after Johnny Depp, and they're calling it "Get the Guest." I'm thinking they either haven't read "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf" or they have and assume the kids haven't.


This is really an ipod meme, because I don't listen to music from my computer; if I'm at home I listen to my actual cds on my stereo. I suppose this is the benefit of living alone!
