Do you know how much our lives are controlled by beeps? No wonder I am salivating so much! Just look at the beeps in my home:
Dishwasher: beeps when it is through running.. and continues a few times to get our attention.
Clothes washer: beeps when it is through running.. and continues for about 15 minutes until we move the clothes to the dryer.
Clothes dryer: beeps when it is through running.. and continues for about 10 minutes.
Microwave: beeps when it is through running.. and continues until somebody empties it.
Stove: beeps one minute before it is finished and then when it is finished, beeps continually, until taken care of.
Oven: beeps one minute before it is finished and then when it is finished, beeps continually until taken care of.
Kitchen timer: beeps one minute before it is finished and then when it is finished, beeps continually, until taken care of.
Alarm clock: beeps continually to wake you up.
Telephone: call waiting.. beeps at you to let you know you have another call.
Telephone: messages pending.. beeps until you listen to the messages.
Cell phone: beeps to let you know you have a message.
Cell phone: beeps to let you know somebody is trying to call you while you are talking to someone else.
Smoke detectors: beep at midnight or 2 AM to let you know that the battery has less than 50% power.
Car: beeps to let you know that it is backing up.
Now isn't that scary!

I forgot some beeps:
In the Kitchen: The refrigerator beeps if the door is left open too long.
In the bed room: One of the alarm clocks beeps instead of rings.
In the car: If our seat belts are not buckled, beeping continues until we buckle up.
In the car: A beep continues if one of the doors is ajar.
I'm sure there are more beeps in my life!
