You Know You Are A History Geek When.....

....ok, it is no surprise that I am a history geek, otherwise this very blog would not exist. However, I bet you did not know that I incorporate as much of history, particularly my own personal favourite eras into just about everything I own, and do even something as ultra modern as the cell phone ringtones I use! Now THAT is called geeking out historical style!

My cellphone screen is currently adorned with the coronation portrait of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth I, and the ringtone to go along with it is the song that is attributed to her father King Henry the Eighth - Green Sleeves. I personally question that he truly wrote it as opposed to his musicians, but I digress......

While these both are highly appropriate, and bring much amusement to myself there are many, many cell phone ringtones that are available to allow all of us to really personalise our phones. You may wish to have a look at these verizon ringback tones. They include every type of musical genre, including some of my favourite classical numbers, which they have devoted an entire category to!

While I love history, I do admit that I am quite happy to be living here in this time, and I am equally happy that I may indulge my passion for the historical in such simple measure as using a favoured tune as my cell phone ringtone.

My thanks to my sponsor.
