Remember the CD Walkman? It was innovative, simple, and state of the art....about 13 years ago! The other day as I was running at the track I saw this woman running towards me with something in her hand. I was thinking, "what is she carrying?" As she got closer I could see it...it was a CD Walkman. She was running and carrying it ever so carefully so her CD wouldn't skip. It took everything in me not to laugh. I couldn't believe it! In the day of iPods and MP3 players why would anyone go through the torment of trying to run with a CD player???? To save money? To be stubborn and rebel? Because they think its better? Because their scared of change? I'm not really sure why anyone would want to run with a CD Walkman when you don't have to. What's unfortunate is that many churches are "running with a CD Walkman." The culture has changed all around them and they have become completely irrelevant....and quite possibly obsolete. I'm not exactly sure why this happens, but I am certain that I never want to be guilty of it.

Walkman's especially the generic portable CD player things produce a very great white=noise sound over the music that I am dependent on to fall a sleep. Being someone that has to amplify music for various things MP3 players simply aren't practical.
