I’m a sucker for pop music—shamefully the girly kind of pop music. If my friends (yes I have friends) knew this, they would surely think I was a total nerd. I mean, I’m a grown man, and I should have grown out of girly music by now…but I didn’t. I can’t help that the melodies are catchy! Fortunately for me there’s the CoolEarPhones walkman.

The CoolEarPhones walkman is by far one of the neatest gadgets I’ve seen this year. What is it? Here’s the just of it: put your CD in, then you select the kind of music you want your friends to think you’re listening too (there’s four to choose from: rap, rock, pop, or classical), then you hit play. You’ll hear whatever CD you put in, but your friends will hear something quite different—from tiny speakers on the outside of the headset, they’ll hear muffled sounds of rap, rock, pop, or classical music.

Just think—you’re parents will think you’re into classical, when really your into punk rock. It’s never been so easy to make people think you’re something that you’re not!
