Missing the Point
Stage 1) The wife would put on audiobooks in a cd player on the kitchen counter loud enough to hear throughout the house. Stage 2) I bought her wireless headphones so we all didn’t have to hear it, which sounds pretty muffled but annoying several rooms away (can hear noise but not what they are saying) Stage 3) Buy her an iPod shuffle so she can pause, etc while she goes around doing what she does. Stage 4) buy portable speaker so she can listen in car (which lacks tape deck or iPod inputs) Stage 5) she walks around house with audiobook playing on portable speaker, rendering roughly the same effect as Stage 1.
