Just how high and mighty do you think you are?

This whole thread is about background music on one of the pages of one
of my clients. That's a little cheesy, but it hardly means I've sold
myself cheaply. Now, I've listened to that music I resisted, and I've
come to the conclusion that if it makes my client and her visitors happy
(it's a metaphysical type site) than why not. Why should she, her
clients, or myself care if you want to throw a righteous hissy fit.
