Ann Althouse said...: Well, whatever the hell version I was listening to sounded like utter crapola.; 7/25/05, 12:46 PM
Ron said...: Ann: was it Muzak? Is there a Muzak version of anything that isn't crapola?; 7/25/05, 1:05 PM
Ann Althouse said...: No, it was some irritating man bellyaching about his heart into my ear while I was trying to make an appointment about my teeth.; 7/25/05, 1:35 PM
Ron said...: Ann: Maybe there's some connection there; if you think the music is bad enough, you'll stop thinking about how much your teeth hurt!; 7/25/05, 2:00 PM
