My Tip for Commenting on ActiveRain While Being Mello

Well for starters, there are no libations involved in this tip. And I will add a photo just because I can, LOL.

Also I am writing this on a spur of the moment catching my thoughts while commenting here in the Rain. A few weeks ago I treated myself to a pair of Dr Beats Solo Headset for my iPad and while we can't use the iPad for commenting right now, I have this amazing headset plugged into my iMac.

I am listing to an album called Orinico Flow music by Enya in my music file and just feel so mello, I thought I would share this with you and suggest that when you are in your comment mode, try listening to your favorite music while commenting.

I can't explain it except to say that it is wonderful.

William - mellow works well. I am always surprised at quality sound from new devices. I go back as far as a grammophone with a box of interchangeable needles for 78rpm. Big progress. Love colors in your pic.

Good morning, William.... when I'm mellow, it's the ideal time to write a post.... when I'm not, what a different flavor!!

William, listing to music is a great way to be inspired. I am going to crank up music in my home office which is where I post! Thanks for the suggestion!

William - whenever I hear Enya I think of hiking in beautiful Sedona, AZ. Music is inspiring and I think I'll turn on some music now and give it a try! Beautiful, vibrant photo of Pansies and Geraniums - thanks for sharing!

Good morning William,

Your photograph is sensational...the colors are so vibrant on the Pansies and Geraniums...a favorite combination of mine. Listing to your music is obliviously inspiring you:).

Hi William - Good advice - William Congreve's 1697 poem, The mourning bride: "Musick has Charms to sooth a savage Breast." Of course, the average blog post here doesn't usually evoke savagery, and I guess it depends on your choice of music. It would be fun to compare comments from a day when everyone here listened to Bach with one where we all listened (or tried, anyhow) to gangsta rap or little kid's music.

Mellow or not, commenting or not, I think that is a beautiful picture. All of different colors in those flowers are intoxicating.

William - an interesting adventure in blogging. Sort of freeform... Very cool, very playful, and I see a smile behind it

I have noise but for me it is always the late night news. I miss my iPad for comments bigtime.

Thanks for sharing your photograph. It is easy to set aside the problems of the day as your focus your attention and your camera on beautiful flowers.

William, That is a seriously great flower photo and the colors are so vivid.

William, I can relate to your experience because I bought a nice Klipsch noise cancelling headphones and the sound quality is AMAZING. It was as if I got an all new stereo. A side benefit to the Klipsch model is that it has a built in microphone so you can also use them while on the phone and it cancels out the majority of office noise...making me even more productive because they help eliminate the distractions.
