"So you know that new iPod Touch ad?" I ask Byron last night. He nods that he does. "I read that some guy made that when he was bored and put it on YouTube and then Apple saw it, loved it, and commissioned him to make it all professional for them."

Byron makes a face of shock. "That just blew my mind," he says.

I tell him I love the song in the ad too, and that I love it double because the band is named CSS. He looks at me confused. "So?" he asks. "You know. CSS," I say.

He shakes his head no. "The web term," I say. "Cascading Style Sheets. I thought that was awesome."

Byron takes a drink of his wine. "You're such a nerd," he says.
