Listening to Music - 8 Track Tapes
Back in the 70's I was listening to my favorite music on 8 Track Tapes. I always hated when in the middle of my favorite song it would switch tracks. That clicking sound was so annoying.

or...Pulling out the tape from the player, and the tape would still be inside the player.

When the tapes in the car no longer worked, I would use them as an ice scraper. That always seemed to work well.

 Scraping the windshield with broken 8 track tapes... I remember that!

God, I hated it when the tape player got hungry and decided to eat one.

It was always my favorite one too!
