I make too many mistakes as it is, without being distracted from what I am doing. A sure sign of old age creeping in.

A grumpy old man in the making.

While I can listen to Limbaugh or Hannity or NPR's left-wing equivalents while cleaning the shop or assembling details, I usually have Classical music from an NPR affiliate or my own collection on in the background when designing or machining.

Post by: John Stevenson on September 26, 2009, 07:15:42 AM: If I'm just working as opposed to needing complete concentration I usually have an audio book on an Ipod.

Problem I have found is that unless I choose a music compilation I get annoyed with radio with all the endless talking and adverts.
If I choose a music compilation I play it a few time, get fed up and don't bother to do a new one.
I hate albums as I get tired of hearing the same group over and over even though I like them.

Just finished listening to Jeff Waynes "War of the World" narrated by Richard Burton, Followed by a Clive Custler adventure.
