The humidifier at medium speed.
Being old is when you didn't loose it, it's that you just can't remember where you put it.

The 5 fans on my PC - didn't realise it would be so loud when I built it, though the new Hard Drive has made it a lot quieter than before!

The low hum of my CPU fan. The foot steps of co-workers down the hall. Oh, sometimes the copier/printer/fax has a print job that comes out and it makes a noise too. And the sound of the keys on the keyboard as I am typing this post.. And the door opening and closing at the end of the hallway just outside my office door.

I'm listening to an interview with a photographer and film maker who taught basic photography to children of women who work in the sex trade in Calcutta, and how this simple knowledge opened doors and made a difference in their lives.

The film about these kids, Born Into Brothels has been nominated for Best Documentary in the Academy Awards.

Right now I'm listening to my Maine Coon cat Spooky purr like a Mack Truck, since it's feeding time and she's wondering what in Hell I'm doing reading posts instead of taking care of her business. I've told her I get fifteen minutes on here while her Chicken of the Sea tuna warms up from being in the 'fridge all night. She's wondering why I buy the canned stuff instead of directly over the counter at the fish market. Yah, sure! Like I can afford REAL Albacore!

Listening to Essential Guitar, 33 Guitar Masterpieces - more specifically, the Cavatina from The Deer Hunter. (That's the name of the movie theme song.) Beautiful piece. Terrific CD. Nice mixture of baroque and spanish guitar music.


tatans,

Nope. Even some of us "yungins" know who Fats Waller is. Didn't he sing the song, "Your Feets too Big"?


dave9999,

Good one. [(-D][(-D][(-D]

Hunter - When we met in January of 2000, you were just a 6 week old pup who walked his way into this heart of mine as the only runt in the litter who would come over to me. And today, I sit here and tell you I am sorry we had to put you down. It was the best thing for you and also the right thing to do. May you now rest in peace and comfort. Love, Dad. 8 June 2010

I love you and miss you Mom. Say hi to everyone up there for me. Rest in peace and comfort. Love, John. 29 March 2017

Ah... Fats Waller! "Mr. clarinet player stand on your feet an' earn your salary, yaaasss!" Me I'm listening to the final mix of a recording I did last Saturday. In between, I get to hear the roar on the old CD burner unit and the hepa filters on the office area. My Mac G5 is completely silent! [:D]

Ray Seneca Lake, Ontario, and Western R.R. (S.L.O.&W.) in HO
