I had that skill honed so perfectly -- and now it's useless! Of course, I only honed that skill because I was so bad at the other vinyl skill -- having enough patience to listen to an entire album all the way Holly A Hugheshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17828633442418722187noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5844952291333878074.post-58426218372397033682008-11-09T11:57:00.000-08:002008-11-09T11:57:00.000-08:00Songwriters have ben robbed of a lovely, lyrical w...Songwriters have ben robbed of a lovely, lyrical word:<BR/><BR/>"stereo"<BR/><BR/>It sings beautifully and rhymes with all sorts of other pretty words, unlike this clunker: iPod<BR/><BR/>Why don't the geniuses who name new products consider these things?Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12809408757641536210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5844952291333878074.post-77158887178694788222008-11-08T12:49:00.000-08:002008-11-08T12:49:00.000-08:00I didn't like that either, Dude.

Made it look like I had a bloody box set in my collection.<BR/><BR/>Tell you what I don't miss: Having to put LPs back where they belong, in their correct place.
