A New Yorker in Exile

A self exiled New Yorker left to explore the world on his own... okay left to explore the world with some help from a few friends... but they aren't New Yorkers. My latest pursuits: home brewing, discrete mathematics, correspondence chess, wine tasting, house cleaning, dog walking, writing more (hence why I'm updating this blog again) and the usual hey what can the world teach me today.

Music

When I was a teenager I couldn't live, rather I couldn't breath without music. It was energy for the soul. A few years ago I stopped keeping up with the latest songs and bands playing on the radio. Now I'm living with a teenager and music has taken on a whole new meaning. I no longer have the same interest in music; it has morphed into a whole new being. When I hear my sister's 10 to 15 watt computer speakers pump out a song that is so repetivitive its almost like being brainwashed against your will. It makes me analyze my listening habbits as a teenager, and question what the hell was I listening to. In order to combat this newly-infilltrated enemy I have started to explore the works of Beethoven, Mozart, Vivaldi, and anything in which it took a real genius or at least a semi-genius to compose a piece of art and not a multi-million teenage pop song.

geez..Jesse...
I happen to like the mind numbing super repetitive "popular music".
Sometimes you just need your mine numbed. I like clasical too, but sometimes a little nine inch nails to clear the head is necessary. I have updated my blog and will do more often, even though I am convinced you are the only one that reads it.
Take Care,

Sometimes it is nice to not have to think. However, I understand what you are trying to say because the repetitiveness can give me a headache also.
