.... 300,000,000 + wacko Americans the NSA will be dealing with before worrying about me.
Isn't the NSA the mob who had one of their contractors take a commercial flight, using his real passport, to Hong Kong, just up the road from a CIA office, and the first they knew about it was when his story was published in the newspaper? Or was it some other ultra competent organization? :)
Maybe the only worry is will my music files turn on my microwave? I hope not, the deep fry might get jealous.
Music is good, remember, an Apple a day keeps the Chinese employed!

Ever hear of Pine Gap near Alice Springs? They're practically in your backyard man!
...Hear of it? I've been there, have you?
Government agencies can't keep track of their own employees let alone members of the public.
But be afraid, be very afraid, it's good for government. :)
Keeping it music related, a boom-box sounds really good in the desert.

A boom-box and cheap beer are excellent in the desert, so long as the beer is cold.
But Abe is'nt "Wiki" just the new name for "Ripley's"(In fact one of the employment requirements at Wikipedia is that you have
to have a certificate from a MHP stating that you are indeed "Paranoid" or
at a minimum seriously confused by the concept of "Reality")

be able to feel you are special enough to warrant interest from someone else. Don't feel too lonely I could care less either and I'm an American. Quit your pigeon holing. FWIW the back side of my home has no window coverings - I figure if someone wants to look over the fence to catch a peek it's their problem not mine. I guess though maybe I should be concerned with our government wasting our tax money investigating people like me - but then again the waste of resources isn't unique to national security. Maybe they need several trillion more.....
Give me rhythm or give me death!
... No, it's awesome.
The paranoia is focused to our north.
I couldn't care less if my government or any other government wants to trawl through my phone, email or web accounts. For me, it really is not worth worrying about.
Curiously, I can conduct myself and rarely need identification... which is a good thing because I rarely carry any. Gosh, imagine that?
I buy music from bricks & mortar shops and pay with a credit card and no ID.
Living in the fast lane is fun, especially when I have my feet up laughing.

You're preaching to the choir, and as an American I can assure you I'm not the only one.
Give me rhythm or give me death!
.... You hope!
I do laugh when some folks rabbit on about not using a mobile phone because they don't want to be tracked. OR only use a burner phone for the same reason.
Be afraid, very afraid!
Of course, my comments are generic and not aimed at you or anyone in particular.... not at this point, at least :)
Enjoy your evening.
Cheers.

There's always something for the paranoid and insecure to be scared about.
Give me rhythm or give me death!
... 'a wife's boyfriend' ???
How many you got or had? :)
Life is too short to be paranoid.
I am an optimist, logic always tells me the opposite is either defeatist or self-fulfilling.
To keep it audio related; there is nothing quite like a slow ballad playing whenever a political burglar is trying to pick-pocket you whist in the shower.
What?

Wow, I guess some of you don't believe in the saying "Keep it light"
(That was the intent of my OP, but as soon as any "Geographical" location
is mentioned things become "defensively inspired".We all experience momentary lapses of "political correctness" from time to time that we don't recognize until later. Hopefully,these are private moments & someone does'nt call us on them) (Unless of course you are also just "pulling
someone's chain" In which case,nevermind.)
What you say is true - though I responded to someone else's pigeon holing with sarcasm. As I didn't take his broad generalization seriously and I think he meant it to be funny. There's nothing heavy, at least from my POV in either three-sox or my comments. And I hope most surely you intended me to take your Emily Post comments with a grain of salt. Cheers
Give me rhythm or give me death!

Well you do realize that my comments 'literally' make very little sense
due to the fact they came from a 'figurative' mind.(I'll bet you don't know too many other "Serial Non-Thinkers": Well now you
know at least one !) (I have some nice sounding Audio equipment though !)

maybe you better buy *several* Apples per day.
Edits: 10/13/14
We have several Apple products. Good products and great customer service both here and in China.
Of course we trade with China, we'd be silly not to.
Only the foam at the mouth, arrogant xenophobes whinge and bitch about China. I'm sure you know the type.

Mostly crazies worried about trivia like human rights and democracy...
Anyway, trying to avoid dealing with that HUGE market/producer as a trading partner would be suicidal.
Hey... There's nothing wrong with us "Yanks"
Oh by the way,I'll deny ever mentioning any three letter Agency !
(Hmmm....I think a huge amount of "popular"music(& the listeners who enjoy
it) might "benefit" from being played in the Microwave.. See,we're not wackos)
... I like most Yanks I know and do business with. I actually buy American tractors.
It is only a few folks on this site who are too tightly wound for their own good. I wonder how they get through the day being so precious about comments on a message board.
CDs in the microwave sound excellent. Especially after spraying them with WD40 :)
