Sensory non-deprivation

If you just don't want to watch the Thursday night lineup, or, for example The Apprentice Celebrity Edition, try one of these two activities:

Turn on a hockey game, mute it out, and listen to Back in the Saddle (on Rocks by Aerosmith - Side 1, Track 1).  Not quite like Dark Side of the Moon and the Wizard of Oz, but close.

Another good one:  Primus -  Tales from the Punchbowl in its entirety while doing intervals on the trainer.  Not that music and training is this cool discovery of mine but for some reason tonight it all clicked.  Especially since this you really need to be doing SOMETHING when you give this album a spin.

Speaking of albums, Santa brought the fam a turntable that has an integral CD burner.  Yeehaw, now I can get my vinyl digitized without shoveling any more money the general direction of our friends at itunes (at least not as much as I would've).

G'night!

they also make LP-MP3 units.
This way you can skip the middle step of burning CDs. Although, with CDs you always have a copy.
