      No way, Jonathan was definitely jamming this on his boombox.

        Another reason to drive an old car is so Jonathon can still play his cassettes…

                          Think about those ancient times and then think about how today we can stream jsut about any music into our cars we want off the internet.

                          My, how far we have come.

                          I am glad meat processing technology moves at a decidedly slower pace.

                                Well, I guess one step further back was my first car and an AM radio with just three bad stations on it. That made having an 8 track player and a couple decent speakers seem like pretty high living.

                                  I can remember doing the big upgrade on my 73 Gran Torino from the 8 Track to a cassette. It may be hard to believe but cassette tapes were a technological advancement at one time. Man I wish I still had that car.

                                        I can’t remember the exact age where having tunes became a major thing, but from that point on I have not been able to get by without a sound track to my life.
