I would have thought that I would get more responses on the football issue. But, go figure.
The short of it, don't have the extra cash to be able to play MP3's.
The long of it, you asked, is I'm semi-retired. This is probably much more than you care to hear, or read, but here goes. I was an IT manager for many years, making good money. A friend I worked with had a friend that did our stocks. He had us heavily invested in Enron. We were being setup for a good retirement. All of a sudden, the vast majority of my retirement was gone. Now I am living on a much worse budget than I planned.
The last DJ's I listened to were Crash, Hudson and Harrigon, Stevens and Pruett, and Moby. I soon got tired of commercials and DJ's opinions. (Opinions are like a$$holes. Everyone has one, and 99.9% of them stink, i.e. this narrative.) Cassettes came along, and I put all of my songs on these. When CD's and DVD's happened, I resisted for a long time. I finally succumbed and spent days...weeks converting to CD's (mainly because my vehicle no longer had a cassette player).
My car stereo is 10 years old. I would have to buy a new radio, MP3 player, and take the time to convert in order to listen. I still have a non-smart phone. Smart phones, to me, seem to be more for entertainment than for talking. I have a 60" flat screen, 110 watt per channel 7.1 stereo, and a desktop computer. Nothing against anyone that has a smart phone, just not for me.
Talking new radios with the local shops, for extra money I could have all of my speakers work, my steering wheel controls to work, and only one CD at a time, as opposed to going with MP3's.
It would cost me a bundle, in my terms. My extra money goes to the Phat Gurl. Don't listen to tunes while riding. My attention is on the cagers. Again, nothing against those that listen while riding.
If you made it this far, thanks for tuning in. Pretty odd, huh. A little too odd
