But yeah, leave it at home unless of course you're going to a very open, sparsely populated beach.

Sux cause yesterday it was over 30 C here and gorgeous. I planned on going down to the beach for the entire day with a 6 pack of beer and a book and just lazing around... but it's cloudy :(

I've gone to the beach when it's been pouring and still been sunburned. Don't let the clouds stop you. ;)

what is the new name then? portable audio player with lots of doodads?

I think he means the whole idea of a boombox is "SO 1975-1986," meaning nobody uses them anymore.

Anyway, since you don't plan on playing it loudly, just go to Target or some similar store and pick up a cheap portable CD player and burn your MP3s as audio CDs. Shouldn't cost you more than $50. I mentioned Target specifically because I saw some on sale there the other day.
