DJ Merman

My wife gave me an amazing present. Basically, technology has made her once just a dream come true - swimming while listening to music. Thank you Speedo Aquabeat. How I don't get electrocuted, I do not know. I don't listen to music when I run, mainly because I like to try and take in the sounds around me, and to try and not get murdered by cars. However, swimming for any long periods of time is like being trapped in an aquarium. The drum of water rushing in and out of your ears is mind numbing. Removed from the threat of being run over by a semi and eaten by a shark, I can now listen to everyone's favorite hit songs from both the Rocky and Karate Kid soundtracks and all the old Nintendo classic theme tunes like from Mega Man and Castlevania.

Those songs are on everyone's iPod right?

That's the craziest thing I've ever heard.

It was also crazy that time that lady in London jumped into the polar bear exhibit and was mauled. So maybe aquabeat is the second craziest thing.

You need some good 80's hair band music to get the blood pumping!! That technology sounds really cool though.
