Thinking better about it, I would make myself a ‘Skrewdriver’ special edition iPod, a la U2.

My WHITE iPod would look really cool with the following lyrics engraved on the back:

Are we gonna sit and let them come?
Have they got the White man on the run?
Multi-racial society is a mess
We ain’t gonna take much more of this
What do we need?

White Power! Forever
White Power! Today
White Power! Forever
Before it gets too late

Not my idea, so I disqualify myself, but it’s funny none the less!

Give that special someone an iPod that says:
