Sea-Doo 4 Person Inflatable Aqua Lounge Includes Its Own Sound System
By Andrew Liszewski Since the thought of even spending one precious second of our lives away from our music, possibly having an intellectual and enlightening conversation with another human being, is so scary to us, it seems everything we own will eventually feature a built-in iPod dock.
