I-Pods, Cigarettes and Coffee (or Cawwwffee)

Nic has made one of the most salient social observation so far (but of course, I have always said she's brilliant as well as beautiful). It seems New Yorkers (of all ages) are obsessed with their I-Pods (http://www.apple.com/ipod/ipod.html), cigarettes (http://www.rareads.com/scans1/30214.jpg) and coffee (and yes unfortunately we mean that kind of caawwffee: www.starbucks.com). Everywhere you turn, people are plugged-in, their brains addled on frappacino's as they splutter over what they swear is their "last cigarette ever". Well, we're certainly not smokers and Starbucks makes us hallucinate (Dunkin Donuts coffee is so much more refined...just jokes)...but the I-Pod...now that - we got down pat! So, I have created my 'West Village' walk playlist, including performances by Bruce Springsteen, The Ramones (will need the Tinnitus treatment after that one), Gil Scott-Heron, Bill Withers, Ben Folds Five and of course, the obligatory ditty's by Dylan and Bowie, all timed to perfection...
