I usually just veg out and watch the cars go by from my balcony but lately I've been listening to music with my Bose noise cancelling headphones. They block out almost all outside noise and I feel as though I'm in my own concert hall. I listen to all sorts of music from rock and pop to classical and jazz. It just depends on my mood. Last night I enjoyed a new CD I just got with the Smithereens greatest hits. Awesome stuff.

I have not yet read while smoking but I may have to give it a try after reading the posts of others. Great thread!
