wave a magic wand and poof...the stereo disappears

what's next ? anyone going to scream jump off a roof ? l the world come to an end ?

how important is a stereo system and listening to music relative to other activities and priorities ?

a friend of mine lost the use of his stereo for 6 months and did not listen to music during that period. he occupied himself with other activities and priorities including, reading and interacting more with familiy members. he relflected on the absence of his stereo and realized that it wasn't really that important.

some of us are addicted to music and our stereo systems.

will we have withdrawal symtoms and need to see a therapist ?

what would you do to compensate for your loss ?

I'd read the Bible more and probably increase the amount of educational television I viewed.

No sound system would mean that I'd spend more time on photography and wood working. But I'd SURE miss the sounds. Music has gotten me through most of the tough times in my life...

I listen to music a lot, but I listen to the radio more than anything else. Even when I'm doing other things, I'll have it on in the background. Note that I said "radio" and not "tuner". There is a lot more music out there on the airwaves than in my personal music collection. As long as I have a portable radio to listen to, I wouldn't miss my stereo at all if for some reason I couldn't have it.

Slightly off topic, but one year in university, I did not have access to a TV. From September until May, I only saw TV for a one week period when I was home for Christmas. I didn't miss it at all. I had my radio though.
