Well, it may not be good for the wallet or for the significant others heart, but music is good for us all!
According to research out of the University of Belgrade at Serbia, listening to music every day might also be good for the heart. Predrag Mitrovic just presented his study of 740 patients to the European Society of Cardiology 2009 Congress, demonstrating that 12 minutes of music a day reduces blood pressure, heart rate, patient anxiety, as well as the likelihood of reinfarction and sudden death in acute coronary syndrome patients.

    So Carl has MS, eh? I didn't know that. And we ran him outta here. I don't know Carl's history here but he was always square to me when we chatted and such. The guy has way more problems than you and I can probably dream of.
