My ear is buzzing like a swarm of angry bees.  I've had tinnitus for
about 5 years.  Every summer it goes crazy.  I think it gets worse due
to motorcycling and/or baseball games.  I don't do much of either any
more, probably less than six times per summer, and I wear earplugs for
both, and a helmet on the bike too.  I guess I have to sell the bike.
Maybe driving with the window down exacerbates it too, but I'm pretty
careful.  Sometimes I think the earplugs somehow aggravate it!  My right
ear has become particularly bad this summer.  Maybe it's because
motorcycle mufflers are on the right, although I think the wind roar
above 30mph causes a lot of the problem.  I've got a rather noisy bike:
a cruiser: stock Honda 750 Shadow.  The strange thing is it's not that
loud compared to some of the bikes out there.

Well, by midwinter it seems to quiet down a bit (I hope!) or maybe I
just get used to the new level.
