2:40 pm	Writer's Block: Music for Thought When you have to study or get work done, what music (if any) do you put on to help you concentrate? View other answers Though I enjoy a decently wide range of musical styles, I prefer to listen to non-lyrical music when I am studying, though I rarely have any kind of music on during these periods, if only for the desire for the greatest possible concentration. I simply CANNOT tolerate any kind of music with lyrics, however, as I, being a very lyrically-conscious person, have a virtually uncontrollable tendency to shift my focus from my studies to the lyrics/the meaning of a given work.

2:38 pm	Writer's Block: When I Was Young What do you miss most about being a kid? Submitted By daeinleyof View other answers What I miss most is that feeling of being carefree and living from day to day. I often reminisce about my younger days and must admit to a frequent desire to return to the days of yore. (1 Comment |Comment on this)
2:34 pm	Writer's Block: Streaming What is your favorite site for listening to music online? View other answers Haven't actually written in this thing for a while, so I thought I'd see what questions like this were out there. I used to be in love with Yahoo! Music's LAUNCHcast, that is, until CBS Radio took it over and significantly decreased / altered its functionality. Now, Pandora Radio and AOL Radio are quite nice. :-) (Comment on this)
