Your Music Sucks

How many times have you been in your car, sitting at a light enjoying life for a change, when out of no where comes a noise so loud your molars hurt? It grows louder and louder. Is it a plane about to crash out of the sky down onto your car? Is it an earthquake? Is the land about to open up and swallow your car? You look over to see it's coming from the La Bamba mobile next to you. The twit driving this motorized boom box has his radio cranked. As they say in the movie SPINAL TAP, he has it on 11. That's one louder than 10. And that's louder than human ears were designed to hear.

Those cars always crack me up. You can immediately see the goof paid more for the stereo than the car. That to me is a sure sign of ignorance. Another sign of ignorance is when they put the brand name of the car on the windshield. Can't you see you drive a Toyota without putting it in 12-inch high letters on your windshield? No wonder you have to drive slumped so low in the drivers seat, you have to look underneath the letters to see.

We all know this scenario all too well. And it's annoying as hell. Especially in this day of rap music.

The lyrics of most of these wretched songs are not something you want blasted to Grannies and children.

But the "gangsta" wannabes don't have enough education or etiquette to know better than to boom taped pornography out to others who have enough morals not to listen to such garbage.

I know in some smaller towns you are just as annoyed by Billy Bob in his truck, blasting sucky country music. Sucky country is any country song recorded after 1993. That's the year REAL country music died; and talentless boy singers replaced REAL country performers. Feminine looking boys with gelled hair and chick singers with belly button rings. Either of which a TRUE country singer wouldn't be caught dead in!

But enough about bad country music and back to loud radios and CD players. They are under attack now. The public is fed up with the noise and one town in Colorado has struck a major blow towards correcting the problem.

A judge in Ft Lupton, Colorado now forces violators of the noise restrictions to listen to loud music THEY hate. For example the lovers of rap music are forced to listen to Dean Martin at ear shattering levels for hours at a time.

One offender said he was forced to listen to the BARNEY the dinosaur theme song and when he laughed at it he was fined for contempt. COOL!

Another offender after finishing his punishment, was quoted as saying, "it's wrong to impose your music or style on someone else." GOSH, REALLY? DUH!

I read this quote in a news story on AOL: "Seventeen-year-old David Mascarenas was apparently scared straight by the judge."

"I'm not going to jam no more," he said. "I took my stereo out already. I don't want to be hassled no more." Nice grammar, pal. Maybe the kid should pay more attention to school and less on stereo equipment!

God bless this judge. He'll be rewarded in heaven.
