The Pope's iPod Nano
Apparently the Pope totally digs the IPod but wasn't so thrilled by the earphones.
"They don't look dignified, and they sound like the wailing of souls in Purgatory, only with cotton stuffed in their mouths."
The Vatican staff took the Pontiff's hint and went to the Papal hat shop, took a Pope hat to the Papal Electricians Guild, and had it fitted with Harman Sound Sticks inside special ear pouches that hang next to the Pontiff's head.
While the sound quality improved and the look was more dignified, the Pope lamented:
"It still sounds like the wailing of souls in Purgatory, only now it's very clear."
Puzzled Vatican staff examined the Pontiff's Nano to discover someone had loaded the entire N'Sync catalog into it. A quick deletion of the offending music solved the problem.
"It's like the singing of angels in Heaven," the Pontiff purred.
