Our cable has music channels and we were playing Uno last night and listening to Christmas music. It was kind of interesting when my kids would mention an older singer and knew who it was. I think sometimes old songs are used as a background in movies so they know more than they realize.

I’m really surprised that Blu-Ray bridged the gap between DVDs and future technologies; I think we’re already at the point where solid state tech (ie, flash drives that were mentioned by a prior poster) will be next. Moving parts are disappearing from electronic devices.

You might have something there.

Oh well, I gotta get outta here again. Did my “north” run already and came home to get a bite of lunch, now it’s time for the “south” trek. Living in the stix has many advantages, however ease of shopping is not one of them. I’ve made stops in 3 different towns already and have 4 more to go........

Same as it always was.

I didn't "grow up listening to" opera or old pop songs like "The Lady In Red" but seeing hundreds of Bugs Bunny cartoons for many years exposed me to these songs again and again and again.
