“some ahole cranked it up again.”
I never curse but this is situation where if you wrote that on a piece of paper, I’d sign it and hand to someone. At my last office, I disconnected the speaker near my desk which only meant the 38 year old secretary had to turn up the tunes even louder. You can imagine what a 38 year old trailer person listens too. It’s not Brahms.
“Thanks for posting. Sent this to my “post-modern” daughter to see if she if she will take off her Walkman for a few minutes.”
How old’s your daughter? This is why rock music is banned from my home, whether it’s in movies, commercials, or cd’s. That junk is poison.
geesh. just what i needed.
Starbucks has its own channel on XM! They have to play it in all stores, of course.
Please add me to your classical music ping list.
I’ve always wondered whether the rock ’n’ roll generation would grow up when it retired, but apparently they are doggedly taking their “music” with them, as illustrated by the empty headed people on the Ameriprise ads with the signature “Give Me Some A-Lovin’” intro. That crap might be playing in some nursing homes someday. Uggh.
Done!
The replies have centered on the music. However, Bloom’s book is a treasure. He targeted our culture with a 50 cal in that book and scored a direct hit.
It’s still a superb read.
