Default Car Music?

When yer driving, what do you listen to?
We loathe the radio, too many annoying ads..
DH burned a whole bunch of CDs and today were listening to Cajun music, the
soundtrack from The movie 'The Big Easy'...I loved it
I was getting sick of the B-52's. I ALWAYS carry a teakwood Kazoo I got
about 10 years ago around with me. Everybody should have a Kazoo.
In 2000 I sent plastic kazoos to people on my Floyd group, and when I send
things, I throw in some shiny confetti. One guy in Holland said he was
still 'Hoovering' confetti out of the carpet 7 years later. LOL.
It's not pixie-dust, just the small confetti.
A Kazoo is fun and anybody can 'play' it. Kids toy? HA!!

It's just background noise to me. Lots of times I don't bother with
anything at all. Sometimes I listen to CD's. I like a lot of (original,
not a compilation of regurtitated "hits") motion picture soundtracks even if
I've never seen the film.

I would imagine driving while playing a Kazoo is as dangerous, if not
moreso, than driving while yakking on a cell phone! LOL

Or in a pickup truck with a large dog sitting on your lap, its head
hanging out the driver's window! (I've actually SEEN that, in Phoenix -
when the driver swerved across three lanes, right in front of me,
because he decided he wanted to make a right turn at the intersection a
hundred feet away.)

Well, I think you're imagining wrong. "Playing" a kazoo isn't much
different from humming. You're just doing it through a piece of
plastic (or wood, in Kyla's case - oooo, fancy! ), which distorts
the sound. And they can be fun - a few members of my choral group
and I got hold of some kazoos, and proceeded to go through quite a
few numbers in our repertoire before we got sick of ourselves. .
But there's not much to take your attention away from driving. I
definitely vote for the kazoo player over the cellphone chatter on
the road!

Do you have to hold a kazoo? Anything that takes two hands off the wheel is
a bad idea, regardless. As far as cell phones go, even the hands-free are
too much of a distraction. (Of course, it wouldn't bother me one whit if
cell phones were outlawed altogether.)

Yeah, so it doesn't fall out of yer mouth.

Yup
Well, like I said before, DH does all the driving, since I'm handicapped and
can't drive myself, so no worries there.

We each have a pre-paid cell phone for emergencies only. I make him take
his when he goes out and I only call him from my landline IF I forgot to
tell him something from the list. He doesn't like to talk on the phone when
he drives either. And I think text messaging is stupid. It might be okay
for business purposes, IDK.

PS How ya doin Jill? I've been thinking about you and sending purrs and
prayers your way.
