My dad never made it out of the 19th century, music-wise. Anything with any kind of rhythmic drums or bass was classified as "rug-beater music" or "bongo-bongo music". Of course, he would never suffer being in a room where that kind of music was actually played, so he never heard anything but the bass. I'm sorry I never got around to playing The Doors' "Spanish Caravan" for him, he might have liked that one.

Personally I`m not sure what my music taste is really, except weird. I like a lot of different things for me to seems to settle to any one style. I do seem to be gravitating to the lyrics more and more, and the background music, but not only this.

At least he wasn't so gauche as to call it "negermusik". My German prof's father took that term to American music he didn't like, including Elvis Presley.

Ah yes, the charm and prejudice of the previous generations. So I guess I`m sort of prejudiced myself in that way, since Im referring to it as "dunk dunk" music?

Hey, just tell Eknes that you, one of his longest-standing tenants, are peeved about this noisy neighbor, and get *him* to tell the guy to tone it down.

Or just make sure that when you go down to confront him about the music, you take along the katana you just happened to be cleaning and sharpening at the time. ;)

Already planned to do that when he drops by to collect the rentmoneny next week :-E

Other options will be pursued if this travesty of gross incompliance failure is not dicontinued in the most expedient manner in accordance with the specified request (Ive been watchin "yes minister" again :)

BTW I thought you were coming up to pursue the next datagathering for your studies, or is it postponed?

Postponed, and in the case of Norway, possibly abandoned altogether. May focus on just DK and SE, and am heavily overhauling research plan.

Additionally, am sick like WHOA. Seeing otolaryngologist today, getting head x-rayed tomorrow.
