I was able to aquire from a friend his old iPod 3rd gen (10GB) becuase he bought an iPod Touch, plus he said it was "broken", a reset fixed that right up. As soon as I got it to boot off of battery my mom took it away 8-o . Hope to get it back tomorrow.

iPod 3rd gen!

Why?
Because i was not back downstairs to shovel the driveway after a split second.
I kind of always had an understanding with my mom, where if I paid for something with my own money that I earned (or got it free on my own time without any help, etc.) that it was kind of an untouchable item in terms of being taken away as a punishment, although rarely if ever did the need arise for punishment of that sort.
So, for example, she could take away the internet, and the nice Power Mac 6500, since she paid for it, but not my Power Mac 6100, since I bought that myself. (technically she could have taken the old Performa 400 since she bought it back in the day, but it would have been pointless as I would have the 6100). In reality though the situation never really arose. I set up the Internet/network; to take it's benefit away from me would mean a decline in quality as I would have no motive to maintain it.
Similarly, the car is titled free and clear in my name, but I just never did anything bad enough to warrant it's removal even if it had been in her name. It's just all about understanding and maturity and being considered more of an equal; having my ideas considered and accepting her wisdom on life.
Nice score on the iPod though.

It is a decent score on the iPod, it needs a new HD and a new battery by the looks of it, it runs off of the power adapter just fine. Plus I was able to get it with the box, power brick, cable, and the ipod itself. I was so happy to see the box for some reason. 
HOLY SMOKES!!!!!!
I cracked it open and reseated the cables and it runs off of battery, plus it charges!

Another great thing, I am getting two unknown 20GB iPod HD's for free. I know they should work since he got them to replace the HD in my friends iPod 4th gen 3 times and nothing changed.
