Music! Amazon! Alexa!

So, so, so excited. And have done a bit of spontaneous dancing --- which I when it happens and it just happened. No money involved! (though this happened because (1) I have an Amazon Prime account - since 2005 and (2) got an Amazon Echo / Alexa and gave it to my hubbie.

Keeping the junk so I can opt of the catalogs here:  DMAChoice.org
