favorite tools: ear plugs

i've acquired a few favorite tools over the years. these are my most recent: ear plugs. i use to try to 'man up' and just deal with it, but recently i've noticed some hearing loss. maybe it's all of those loud guitar amps and saws! i've grown tired of always saying 'what?' and 'huh?' so i've 'manned up' and have started using ear plugs. the best $6 i've ever spent. no more ringing ears, imagine that!
