least big storage area. I don't think I could hav 3,000 of ANYTHING
in my apt. For the longest time I just listened to the radio because
I never had to change it or decide what I wanted to listen to. I
listen to oldies stations that pretty much only play music I like and
don't repeat too often, so it's less effort. I don't think I could
even FIND 2000 albums I wanted and I don't know how I could ever
listen to them all. That's like an album a day for 6 years. I don't
have a record player, but my parents have tons of records. I bought a
record once and put it on the back ledge of the back seat of the car
and it melted on the way home. That was a lesson truly learned the
hard way. I was probably 10 at the time, and not too happy about it.
