[stylist] Reading audio books

[Brad Dunsé]

I prefer audio, either commercial or NLS 
versions. I do appreciate the Samantha 
versions  of DTB text  read on Mr. Vic Stream 
too, but opt for the former when I can. I do most 
all my reading on Vic though I've got an iThing. 
. Nerve issue due to a nasty winter fall affected 
my Braille ability of any decent amount.  I 
really wasn't much for long reading bouts anyway. 
My bad I know.  I didn't learn it until my late 
twenties and didn't use it much until my 
mid-30's. I fall asleep trying to read Braille, 
but use it for office stuff for sure. . Me and 
Vic, we be mates 'grin', he goes with me to mow 
lawn, rake lawn, grill dinner, set on the swing 
out back, vacuum, fold clothes, wash floors, 
whatever, he's a good little worker.
