I usually listen to an audio book while I work around the house and yard. I finished a book yesterday so instead of starting another today, I listened to some of the music off my computer.
My working companions included Adele, Kelly Clarkson, Taylor Swift, The Bee Gees,S&G, The Beatles, Bon Jovi, Jessica Sanchez, and others.
Kelly Clarkson has some powerful music to work to. Adele is great too. I’ve got a live version of “Puff the Magic Dragon” by PP&M that transports me back to college days.
I found that having Bon Jovi’s “Living on a Prayer” playing in headphones makes outside cats skittish.
I marveled at how rich and melodic the pre-disco Bee Gees songs were.
While cleaning out the garage and shed I ran across one of the first electronic math games we got. It’s a TI Dataman. I opened the battery compartment and tried to take out the 9 volt battery. Instead the battery came apart shedding its terminals. I got the old terminals out and put in a fresh battery hoping to see the thing come to life….and…..no luck. Nothing looks obviously broken but it has no sign of working at all. For K&C here’s what the Dataman looks like.
Any memories of it?
