Car Forum / Chevrolet / Chevrolet Corvette / July 2004Tunes in your Corvette
Just took the '67 out the other day... I usually just listen to the side exhaust with the windows wide open - no better music than that. BUT the radio is always tuned to an oldies station - always has been, during the 25 years I've owned the car, no matter where I've lived. Just seems fitting on the rare occassions when the radio is on. In my daily driver Toyota or Honda, the radio is practically 100% AM talk - that is, when my 5 year old doesn't want to listen to JD's Rocky Mountain High, Shania Twain, CCR, Nitty Gritty Dirt Band or Shedaisy. Just curious the era of radio programming the rest of you listen to vs. the era of your Corvette when tooling around. Here's waving to ya - \|||| Owen > Just took the '67 out the other day...

Rock and roll from the 60's to 80's. > Rock and roll from the 60's to 80's. Does the '80's era match your car? (That was the real question.) Are folks with mid-years just stuck groovin' to the '60's? Do those tooling around in a late '70s tap their fingers on the wheel to Disco Duck or Donna Summer? Is it a subtle indication of your personality? The era of the car, the era of the music and the times you feel most attracted to? Coming of age perhaps? Someone you know who influenced your Corvette interest and a connection via the tunes of the time? Though I'm more a product of the mid to late '70s, I love the music of the '60s and early '70s. Folk groups, CCR, NGDB, The Grass Roots, America, Don McLean - they're all great... and my cars match this era. Here's waving to ya - \|||| Owen > Does the '80's era match your car?

ME: Here you go my freind ---- 10 Ways You Can Overcome Anger by Steve Arterburn ---------------------------------------------- 1. One of the key steps to overcoming anger is to identify the object of your anger. Many people who struggle with chronic anger aren't even sure what they're angry about. When you identify what you're angry about you can begin the process of dealing with it. 2. One of the goals of an angry person can be to draw attention to themselves. They often feel that negative attention is better than noattention at all. If you don't feel loved or needed, this may be a root cause of your anger. 3. Accept the fact that most things in the world are out of your control. If you try to continually control your family, friends or circumstances you will find the result frustrating. 4. The root of your anger may lie in a lack of forgiveness. If you've never forgiven someone who's hurt you, you're caught in a vicious trap that will ultimately destroy you. 5. Many who struggle with anger hate themselves. Self-hatred can be used as a tool to control your emotions. You may need to learn new skills to control your emotions in a positive way. 6. You may be angry about things your family or friends have done to you in the past, even decades ago. This is called residual anger. It is possible to resolve this anger and move on with your life, but you must be willing to spend time identifying the root of your problem and choosing to forgive those who have hurt you. 7. There are some legitimate physical causes for anger. If you suspect your problem may be related to a chemical imbalance in your body, be evaluated by a qualified psychiatrist. 8. In truth, no one can "make you angry," even though they can provoke you. You can control your response to people and circumstances. 9. There is a place for "righteous anger," when one of God's principles is violated. Scripture does admonish us to "not let the sun go down on our anger" though. In other words, when you feel angry, it is important to deal with it and move past it as soon as possible. 10. If you or a family member is struggling with anger issues, they're not likely to go away by themselves. It is necessary to identify the cause of the anger and take proactive steps to resolve it. Help is available, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. New Life Ministries has resource materials about anger and we have caring Christian professionals available to speak with you. You can contact us at 1-800-NEW-LIFE.

Oh yea, I got one of those. I can't hear squat over the side pipes though. The speakers are shot too so I can't even listen to it when the engine is off. The amazing part is that it's 36 years old and still works. That being said, if I could I would be listening to: Jazz (although the only "real" jazz station in NY went off the air a while ago so it's hard to find) 60's-70's -- rock Zeppelin, Beatles, Who, etc. Talk Radio Gospel--Blind Boys of Alabama, etc. The Gospel music I discovered recently. I happened to catch the Blind Boys on Lenno one night. I was feeling mellow and they came on singing "Go Tell it on the Mountain". Man, it rocked...they were great (I recommend going to Amazon Dot Com and hearing that track). Anyway, I happened to mention it work. A women (who is married to a guy that has been friends with BB King since they were teenagers and plays with his band from time to time), gave me copies of his favorite selections. Nineteen CDs worth! I play them when I'm in the basement airbrushing. As goofy as it sounds, I find the Gospel stuff inspiring when I'm doing my airbrush stuff.

I saw the Blind Boys of Alabama supporting Peter Gabriel. I asked someone "where'd these guys come from" - "they've been together 60 years" was the reply.
