Putting a toe into the clutter

[urbpan]

Inspired by the great 2009 Massart (and associated industries) Facebook old photo explosion, I started looking through one of a million bags (and boxes and containers and so on) of old photos. Daunted, I managed to throw out about 20 blurry pics of nothing in particular. But I also came across a handful of cassette tapes. It occurred to me that as I go through all of my belongings, at some point I am going to stumble upon a few hundred cassettes. We do have a tape deck in our stereo, but we almost never use it.

Anyone want a huge box full of cassettes? It's probably a cool retro thing to have, but I see it as allergy-inducing junk.

Did you sit through the three different commercials telling you to turn your phone off? Alternate question: is it a really boring movie?

[shellasaurusrex.livejournal.com]

yes i did, but i have a blackberry and i think it's considered a pda at this point. and yes. this movie is beyond lame (dog hotel or something like that)

are the tapes full of awesome 90's music?

[urbpan.livejournal.com]

Yes indeed, eighties and nineties music, from my whipper-snapper days.
