Using a generic video out cable on your iPod video

If you want to run the videos on your iPod out to a TV but don't want to buy the Apple cable, you can use a generic 3.5mm to RCA AV like the ones that often come with camcorders. The small trick is that the the standard colors / functions don't apply. Your right / left audio channels are the white / yellow cables respectively and the video is the red. Other than that things work nicely!

On another note, it is a sad evening. For the first time in 10 years Jimmy Buffett is going to take the stage in Indy and I am not there enjoying old friends and cold drinks. I will listen this year on radiomargaritaville alone in my den, my friends will be missed and hopefully we can reunite next summer. Fins up.

Lastly, credit Brad for forwarding this to me if you are familiar with "lazy Sunday" try the local flavor "Lazy Muncie". I would give the link to the original which should be at lonelyisland, but NBC felt threatened and has yanked all versions from most all sites. You might be able to go to nbc.com/snl and find it.. good luck, its a shame that you have to work that hard to find it.
