I still harbor a fear of the Prudential Retirement Services Muzak. I'm afraid I will never be cured.Karinhttp://poppingbubbles.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-286306825898497851.post-15586688165410020822010-02-27T12:01:03.628-08:002010-02-27T12:01:03.628-08:00You do understand that they choose the music most ...You do understand that they choose the music most likely to turn you into a Zombie, right?David O'Donnellhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14178403616481769010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-286306825898497851.post-50021731088866894412010-02-27T11:50:29.584-08:002010-02-27T11:50:29.584-08:00I wonder if was the same "music" I am , ...I wonder if was the same "music" I am , oh,so familiar with when being put on hold by dispatch.
