Colleen at The Thursday 13 holds a weekly blogging prompt where bloggers make a list of 13 things on Thursdays. The topic is for you to choose. The blog host doesn't have any official graphics to display on the Thursday 13 posts, so I decided to whip one up myself. 🙂
A very odd assortment of topics today:
Ain't this the truth (though I never bothered with MP3s or subscription services). And I mostly had cassettes. |
Launched on this day in 1981. Now it's nothing but crap. I did not have it until 1989, and even then they began de-emphasizing the videos. |

I overdid the Olympics one even though I don't watch them :) Though I liked the one with the cats (I like anything with cats).

I still have a lot of CDs, but am unsure if my player still works. I can listen to a sing on Youtube when I get the urge to hear it.
I remember when MTV started as it was just a day after my birthday. (We got MTV in 1983. The first time I saw the Rolling Stones... They were so very ugly. We couldn't get over how ugly they were.) I barely had records, and now I only listen to Pandora, so I kind of skipped all those Gen X milestones with regards to music.
ReplyDeleteWe bought a combination record player, radio, cassette & MP3 player for one of our anniversaries. We seldom use it as I just ask Alexa to play my favorites, but I am glad we have it. Was the thing with Jagger real?
ReplyDeleteI have CDs, too, but rather than play them, I just turn to Alexa. Like you, I'm not watching the Olympics but I enjoyed your Olympic cat memes. (And, like you, I'm all in for Harris.(
ReplyDeleteI picked up a great little CD player at the thrift store for a reasonable cost.
