Heck, you make us all look like slackers! You've been one busy bee. I love MP3 players, too. I don't have one of my own, but borrow my daughter's on occasion. You are helping convince me to get one of my own. Nothing like great music to accompany the beauties of the garden.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6056175194573952795.post-78603223414923763442009-07-20T07:38:45.470-06:002009-07-20T07:38:45.470-06:00Interesting!

It was so good! Maybe your library carries him?

Music would be my choice for things on mp3 players. Great idea for those not as distractable as myself.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09582157624382487302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6056175194573952795.post-24667868070760946772009-07-19T18:26:40.899-06:002009-07-19T18:26:40.899-06:00What a fantastic idea!

Since our kids are out of the house (recent college grads) guess we will have to figure out the loading of said device ourselves! We like NPR radio, so think some of those shows will get downloaded. I do think one's listening skills would have to improve. We used to listen to Radio Mystery Theater on AFN radio when we lived in Germany--- radio theater, what a treat!Janet, The Queen of Seafordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07876204203323750245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6056175194573952795.post-10972861316804388282009-07-19T13:21:08.712-06:002009-07-19T13:21:08.712-06:00I listen to podcasts outside- the BBC ones are fre...I listen to podcasts outside- the BBC ones are free- and I download them onto my Blackberry.
