Beautiful silence–
A sweet song so seldom heard
Drowned by modern life
Our zeal for technology
Is making us numb

Tres magnifique;). Right now, big P is watching a basketball game on his IPad. And another basketball game on the tv. Oyvay!! March Madness is here. Silence does not exist at this time of year.

I’m as bad as everyone else, computers (more than one), cell phones (I carry 2 when I’m at work), my Kindle, my iPod and of course the TV going in the background. I think it might be time to turn off a few thing once in a while. :)

wowzers – you are like a techie geek! i have one cell phone, a desktop and an ipod. i am pretty techie challenged;)
-
I suppose that I am a geek of sorts. I have even more gadgets that I didn’t mention, but I do tech for a living and have for about 30 years or so (god I sound old), but hey…what are you going to do. :)
-
Geeks are cool. And I think you are a totally cool geek;). Not everyone can be a cool geek;)

I’ve tried to convince my wife for the last 25 or so years that I am not a geek, but neither she nor my children are buying any of it. I guess that it is just a badge I will have to wear with pride. :)

I could use a little of this right about now. Thanks. :)

Me too–yesterday, I had to close the windows and turn on the fan which activates my living room wind chimes. It wasn’t “silence”, but at least it muffled the exterior NOISE–and the chimes soothe me.
-
Chimes are beautiful and yes they are very soothing. That to me is a good kind of noise. I hope that you are doing well my friend.
