What I like to listen too.

[doitmyself]

When it's 0 degrees F outside and we're into our 45th day of no sunshine, I get a kick out of going to one of those internet radio sites and tuning into a station from sunny Hawaii.

Ahhhhh...... warm ocean breezes, girls in bikinis, a tropical drink with an umbrella, Don Ho.......... o.k., back to chainsawing ice storm damaged trees at my work place. Ho-hum.

You didn't answer my question, Nacho.

Anyways, maybe you have too many duties.

A cool site for music fans. www.pandora.com. After it loads type in artist and it will search for similar artists.

VERY COOL! Thanks.

I'm not so much a "favorites" kind of guy, but I've had a long-standing affection for blues (e.g. Buddy Guy), classical (e.g. Prokofiev), and movie/stage musicals (e.g. Annie Get Your Gun). I'm also unusually fond of the sound people make when they swallow and "A Prairie Home Companion".

Don, moribundman is the kinda guy who tunes the radio to a channel he likes, then turns the volume all the way down.

Audio-Visions new age music, on XM Radio on my DirecTV channel 856. Very relaxing but not too out there.

I had to put a new battery in my car a couple of weeks ago. It disarmed the radio, and now won't work unless I pull the radio, find the serial number, and get the radio code. But you know what?

I prefer listening to the sound of the engine. It is a symphony to my ears! My wife doesn't agree. She keeps badgering me to fix the radio. I feel like the guy in that VW Fast commercial. The one where he is driving down the road with the windows down. She asks him to roll up the windows because the wind is messing up her hair. He replies, "It is kind of hard for me to hear the sound of the engine with all that yakking."

Anyway, that's what I listen to these days. The sound of an internal combustion engine and the action of the clutch. Gimme that over the sound of Britney Spears, some right-wing angry guy ranting on the radio, or the 10,000,000 th playing of Led Zeppelin, (insert your own played out sound over the airwaves). Anyday.

I can hear my Fast egging me on right now! *cue evil sounding background chorus*

Two sounds that I miss a lot are the sound of the Atlantic surf a quarter of a mile away as I slept, and the sound of my three big dogs breathing deeply and gently snoring all night.
