Original article: We'll always hate Paris

irrelevant

I know this a largely liberal political site, but not everything is related to the politics of the minute. Your reason for focusing your dislike on Hilton is not my reason. I dislike Hilton simply because she doesn't seem to have a brain. And she celebrates this.

I wouldn't focus on her at all, but the media shows her all the time.

I don't listen to music

I listen to audiobooks, same as in my car. I read too slowly on the treadmill--I listen faster. I have to pause it while actually lifting, to concentrate better. But, that's a lot of time between sets or anything with cardio. I've found I get a REALLY lot more "reading" done since discovering audiobooks, though it doesn't work as well for the hard to read stuff--because I'd have to read too many portions again.

My gym tends to play crappy music from the radio, but that's my opinion of the radio, in general. Tends to be rock, I think. I think it tends to be the most popular radio station. They change it on request, which basically means the regular hardcore members usually control what gets played.
