My wife has been playing the audio book...."The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society." Why, dear God does she feel it necessary to blast this throughout the entire house ?
Here's a sample. Lock your guns in the safe and lose the key.

Maybe she'd like some new rims for her car.
Is she really trying to kill you or just make you go crazy?
On a scale of 1-10, 10 being the worst how bad is the situation?

Did you listen to the youtube clip?
I'd say ELEVEN
Marty DiBergi: Oh, I see. And most amps go up to ten?
Nigel Tufnel: Exactly.
Marty DiBergi: Does that mean it's louder? Is it any louder?
Nigel Tufnel: Well, it's one louder, isn't it? It's not ten. You see, most blokes, you know, will be playing at ten. You're on ten here, all the way up, all the way up, all the way up, you're on ten on your guitar. Where can you go from there? Where?
Marty DiBergi: I don't know.
Nigel Tufnel: Nowhere. Exactly. What we do is, if we need that extra push over the cliff, you know what we do?
Marty DiBergi: Put it up to eleven.
Nigel Tufnel: Eleven. Exactly. One louder.
Marty DiBergi: Why don't you just make ten louder and make ten be the top number and make that a little louder?
Nigel Tufnel: [pause] These go to eleven.

Hmmmmmm. Take out the words and it's actually quite nice. I think I have that concerto on vinyl in the basement. I going down there to look for it and the Hi Fi after I've finished here and see if I can't also find my copy of The Diary Anne Frank. The combination of all three seems like a nice way to fill the afternoon.....Yes dear I'm coming.
