the first sign of maturity is when you realize the volume knob also turns to the left.

ha! i have to do this when i'm driving home at night,because if i don't,my ears will ring when i go to bed. i also used to have ringing in my ears after using my big headphones at home,so i stopped doing that a while ago.

yeah,okay,so i'm getting old.

My name is "Old" Oldie Olderson

Nowadays I get a ringing that comes and goes once in a while. Too much loudness in my mispent youth! I'll use the Egyptian userpic tonight--I'm old!

oh yeah. i went to a concert at the end of april and may've done some damage to my hearing. i have loud tinnitis now (well, already had some). no doubt i haven't been careful enough over the years.

I asked my son to "turn it down" the other day because his music was just too loud! I officially "grown-up" I guess.

*sigh*

Wait...

...I don't get it. The music knob can turn LEFT? What does that do? Seems like an odd thing to do.

Ironically, I keep my music turned down in order to look cool. There is something decidedly "uncool" about a graying 38-year-old father of two cranking out the tunes in his Mitsubishi Galant. Besides, the music I prefer doesn't sound good when played too loud.

How about this as a sign you're getting old: some of the things that George Will writes actually make sense.
