Super Blast-from-the-past strikes back!!

good story. tell it again!

...

I'm sorry... These painkillers are making me really loopy. I'm just getting stupid. disregard previous message plz.

Ah I still use audio cassettes. If I still had my Record player i'd still play my records....if I had 8 tracks and a player I'd use those.
But yeah I haven't seen anyone listening to a portable audio casette player in over 5 years atleast.

I was sitting at the bus stop today, and there was a girl, about my age, listening to an audio cassette tape.

I can't say I remember seeing one of those for over 2 years.

I still own a couple of cassette tapes. I used to bring a tape recorder on the bus and secretly tape record the insane ramblings of my best friend. He ended up writing a book about them. He made a bit of money too. (By bit, I mean a few dollars. By book, I mean he photocopied something he wrote on his hand.) ... (And I gave him the money to make him stop.)

I always use my old Walkman, especially when I'm mowing the lawn. I don't even have a portable CD player, or any CD player of my own at all, and I don't have one of them fancy MP3 players, either. I also use my dad's record player sometimes, too.

I almost died when I found my old Michael Jackson casset tapes the other day. Actually, it was 3 Micahel Jackson tapes, and MC Hammer tape, Garth Brooks, and The Chipmunks 'urban' something or other tape (The Chipmunks' version of a bunch of country songs). I forget where I put those...

heh, i still use my tape player to listen to Weird Al, rip cds, and to record Love Line once in a while

I never owned a cassette tape, I just got cd's

I don't remember ever owning a cassette player... my Discman with AM/FM radio works great for me. Don't even wanna bother with an MP3 player after having a shitty little RCA Lyra - but that's for another topic.

A tape player? I still use a record player. Now if only my dad had had the sense to buy the White Album when it came out... Oh well, gotta find a CD....
Anyway, before buying a CD burner (which stopped working.... grrr-anger-anger) I hooked up a recorder to my comp's audio output and just copied my MP3's that way. Still got Off the Deep End and Running With Scissors on tape.

In fact, as I type I am ripping an old Yankovic CD that my friend made for me a few years back. I only just found it and I'll probably make a cassette copy as soon as I feel like it.

Yes it does. I was obsessed with that tape when I was a kid, I listened to it all the time. I used to have a Chipmunk christmas tape, too, but the neighbor boy broke it because he was an asshole.

bradshawn, spam is bad. Stop it.

congratulations on an uber cool response. did it take you all day to think of that? really witty.

ontopic: honestly, i hadnt seen a cassette tape in a few years before looking at a bargain bin at FYE. i havent used a cassette tape in almost 10 years...

You are banned.

Doesn't he get a warning first?
meh, whatever....

Anyway, I like portable tape players better than portable CD players. Every time I try to use a portable CD player it skips all the time. Bugs the hell outta me. Probably just me being way to cheap to buy quality stuff though.
