Thoroughly Modern? Me? We'll see.

I have just subscribed to a variety of podcasts. Now I can listen to the news on my walk to work. Hopefully, the information will go in both ears and stick. Brainwashing, they call it. There are probably podcasts that are pure fun, too.

Who knows where this will lead? Next thing you know, I'll go for a run and "read the newspaper" at the same time. Isn't that a little weird? Snobby? Too efficient? I'll be one of those headphoned people ignoring their surroundings and acting like their time is so valuable that they have to do two things at once. I'll exercise and study for the GRE and answer telephone calls while staying slim on a treadmill, or something...
