tacomauriculum

I used to get upset about the smell here. "Tacoma aroma" they call it.. Frankly the Rouge river in Detroit was far worse! But what I really want to talk about is the sound of this south Sound area: specifically the Fireman's Park area and its audible reach further west toward the Theatre District. Perhaps if one does not live in these downtown areas this is not something one would even know about. But I do. I live smack dab in the middle of it, and every sunday afternoon instead of show tunes rehearsals I am forced to listen to Christian hymns sung overlong and loudly - too loudly -by very bad singers. Apparently they are ignorant of the decibles too and how far they travel - or maybe not. Perhaps this is just another instance of a call to prayer.
