My refrigerator is noisier than that. When I listen to music,
I just turn it off and let my food rot.

Of course Arnii Krooger has been there done, that. Here's the proof,

Aesthetic sensibility test:

1. When your refrigerator cycles on, do you:
a. Open it and look for something to eat.
b. Turn up the volume?
c. Open the window and scream BWWAAAAHAHAHAHAHA! at the neighbors?

2. The part in the refrigerator that makes the noise is:
a. Bacteria
b. Compressor
c. Not covered by warranty

3. If someone offered to pay for all the electric your refrigerator eats,
provided that it was moved into your listening room, would you
a. Jump for joy?
b. Offer him a sandwich made with mayonaisse stored in aforesaid
refrigerator
c. Blog a long diatribe about "green" refrigerators and crosspost it
across 17 usenet newsgroups?

Well, I have an old iMac that does well as a music server. I've got an
external HD attached for music storage, run slimserver software on it
and wireless stream to a Squeezebox hooked into my main stereo system.

Instead of that foolishness, Styncho, tell us about your cult. How many
fags have you strung up this month? How many babies have you rescued
from the abortionists? Let's talk about the important stuff, like what
you're planning to do with your worldly goods when Gawd calls you up to
Heaven. Have you replaced any godless politicians with men of the cloth?
And update us on your schemes to destroy the Episcopal/Apoostate church
because of their crimes against Gawd's plan.

After we've covered the important stuff, then maybe we'll have time to
learn about your computer fetish.

Not today, but thanks for asking.

Why would they do that? The only intolerance I've shown you is in
regards to stupidity, which is not a protected class. LOL!

Why do you say that, dimbulb?

BTW, did you bail out your kid after that big bust, or did you choose to
let him sweat in jail for a while?

One thing changed, George is so down and out his
rent-boy fetish is left unattended. Hence his grumpy
demeanor.

Little wonder considering his hovel reeks of the Augean stables.

Stopping by rao, you can always count on 'lil Georgie soiling his Depends
with unbridled glee.

His "lifestyle" has, sadly, left him incontinent.

His malodorous detonations repulse even members of his chosen abominative
"community."
