We are a commune of inquiring, skeptical, politically centrist, capitalist, anglophile, traditionalist New England Yankee humans, humanoids, and animals with many interests beyond and above politics. Each of us has had a high-school education (or GED), but all had ADD so didn't pay attention very well, especially the dogs. Each one of us does "try my best to be just like I am," and none of us enjoys working for others, including for Maggie, from whom we receive neither a nickel nor a dime. Freedom from nags, cranks, government, do-gooders, control-freaks and idiots is all that we ask for.
I hear 'ya. Not an opera fan (although I have attended the Met for "Barber of Seville") and I'm fairly eclectic in terms pf musical choices. Oddly, when I'm just hanging around, I prefer "elevator" music in the electronica/techno smooth jazz style. For the truck, it's do-wop 24/7/365. :>)
The accompaniment reminds me of chopsticks from Radio Japan (real audio Nov 10,2005)

I don't remember whether that's a new or old encoding; if old, modern real players may ask to download the old SIPR-9 codec, nowadays usually replaced by a Cooke codec.
(takes only a second. Fairly decent musical quality at only 11.5kbs)
Reminded me of Devo for a minute. I got seriously creeped-out by the 'boys' and had to turn it off. Easy enough to listen to, but frightening to look at. Put those flower pots over their heads.
