When I was a kid, I had a Playskool tape recorder permanently attached to my hand. While performing interviews of friends and family, I captured every totally amazing and completely mundane moment. I loved it! Other folks thought it was irritating.
Now that I'm older, the story hasn't changed very much... I use a Cannon PS Something-er-other instead of the Playskool tape recorder. The frustration factor remains the same, but the presentation is slightly more enjoyable.
