oh vista… why won’t you let me download rhapsody, so that I might find new favorite songs among those that aren’t currently in my collection.  no, no, I’m not saying that i’m not grateful that you let me download iTunes… of course, yes, you’re right, that was very generous of you.  thank you vista.  thank you very very much.  no, please don’t get mad and take it away.
