Sure they will. They have dub-step.

Wrong. I enjoy much of the current music on offer. Dub-step is just noise.

We didn't get a color TV until the 1967 World Series. Mom has a worker's comp. claim and required the TV before any other spending. If not for that money we'd have gotten a color TV when they came in Cracker Jack.
