Students who think that they are speaking quietly enough to excape detection. As long as they are not cheating and keep working I don't bother to stop the whispered gossip.

Songs: Ohia's Protection Spells. To be followed by the self-titled release and then The Lioness. Then I start re-ripping some ska/reggae-type band. Still re-ripping my music (and I probably will be for a few more months) but the pile is slowly getting smaller. I now have on my HD, including podcasts, 5393 items that can be played over 14.3 days and take up 27.63 gigs.
