Mute-ation
My TV mute is ON or OFF, and I would like it to be better. | |
It's Friday evening and I'm listening to Planet Rock. (Alice Cooper's show, since you ask.) There are are some songs that I don't want to listen to at all, some that I want to listen to at normal volume, and some that I want at high volume (because, this being Friday evening, I'm in the mood for playing
along with them; for those who don't know, I play guitar).
Sure, I can use <MUTE> for case 1 and <UN-MUTE> for either case 2 or case 3, against some preset volume level, and adjust the volume manually for he other option, but I'd like an extra MUTE-ISH button, just to save me the trouble.

Our stereo reciever and the last two televisions we've
owned have 'MUTE, 1/2-MUTE, Full-volume' features. My
Dad's TV does, too, come to think of it. Check your local
Home Entertainment department. |

And maybe an "emo" button. It plays 'The Cure' when it is
depressed. |
|
|
Nothing wrong with that. And fie upon you, calling The
Cure emo. Fie! |
|
|
If The Cure didn't cause you to emote in anyway, then I contend that you, sir, are not a true fan! |
|
|
Emote, yes, in the most passionate senses. But I dislike the
new genre that has come to be known as 'emo' and dislike
as well any comparison or association. |
|
|
As to your contention, 'Disintegration' is one of my desert-
island albums. |
|
|
Ok, I take it back. Anyone that wants to listen to "In the
same deep water as you" on a desert island, wins. |
|
|
Heh. I didn't even think of that. |

Whoops... WAY off-topic... |
