I don't think the sound of crickets chirpin around here will kill us, but I don't think it has much potential fer makin us stronger either.

PS, I like them artichoke hearts, just not the pineapple.  I'll eat dern near anything thats been pickled.

crickets chirpin is what I hear all the time, that's the noise in my ears,  makes it kinda nice,  I can close my eyes and it sounds like I'm out in the woods, no matter if it's winter or summer.  ;D   too many hours of sitting on a diesel tractor with that roar right there by my head.
We done it for Dixie,  nothing else

Weird, I got Cicada's in my ears, good thing I hate crickets chirping, don't like the sound.  Glad they passed that law 'bout 20 years ago sayin' they can't chirp.  (They did din't they, or is there another reason they stopped?) ::)

I might be slow, but I'm mostly accurate.....

I had the emergency broadcast signal in ma ear fer months.  Wanted ta hear the gun roar.  Guess I shoulda used cream o wheat in the load.

I hear an electrical pitch 24/7.  Sometimes it's so loud I can't sleep.
People like me are the reason people like you have the right to bitch about people like me.

If we could get all the noises in our heads together, the racket would deafen folks. ;D

Shooting Large bore handguns for many years without ear protection has dulled my hearing.

A funny happened at work a few months ago, learned somethin' I didn't know before.  took something up to the work dept counter had a security tag on it and laid it down.  Diane picked it up and moved it, said don't lay it there, I can't stand the noise. ???

Asked her what noise?

That squeal they make to remind us of a security tag to remove.

Sorry can't hear it, when did they put that in.  She said it was here when she started 8 years ago, well I've been here for 9 and never knew it.   ;D

Still think they are liein' to me. ::)

I didn't practice good ear safety in my younger days, didn't really think that much about it back then.
