PICTURE PERFECT FRIDAY--FUNCTIONAL

RadioWorksText
Thank you Heather (A Slow Read) for bringing us all together again for a fun Picture Perfect Friday!!
Some of my teachers over the years, the ones I remember and learned the most from all taught with humor. I love a good sense of humor, especially in making a point or illustrating a story. So, perhaps I should have explained my thoughts, no matter how dis-jointed, behind this photo when I first posted it. I have had this AM/FM/FM Stereo/Cassette player since 1983. It was given as a birthday present from a girl friend. It has traveled with me on trips here and there, and back again. And when the Cassette player finally rebelled against my choice of music and refused to function, it became my job radio, going with me from one job site to another. It has been dropped, painted, sat on, left in the rain, had coffee spilled on it and in it, lumber has bounced off of it, tools have fallen on it, the antenna was snapped off, and it still works, at least the radio part! There are a lot of memories in this old radio. And like so many things, when you think its' usefulness has passed, gone like so many fallen leaves, it still has use, it still has a function.
The camera is a Kodak Easy Share , and I used MGI PhotoSuite for the text balloon.
And yes I collect Marvin The Martian figurines.
