May Apple Fry in Hell Forever and Ever

So I'm trotting down my parents' mile long forested driveway, doin' a little jog, doin' a little dance, gettin' down with my little iPod, thinking, "I don't know what the heck these reviewers are talking about that the iPod couldn't take a little jostling. I should have gotten one sooner. They don't know what they're talking about." The song ends. I go to the menu to change the mood. Pick a new song and boom. Nothing. It displays the song but no sound. I can't turn it off. I can't change songs. It's just frozen. And of course, I didn't bring the cord with me, so now I'm stuck with a frozen iPod. Arugghhhhh!!!!
