I also didn't get a PM. Can someone please send it my way?
I'll send you a copy of mine.  Just amazing things happening!

On one broadcast this week there was a news article concerning the earthquake in Chile.  I think the woman who presented the piece was named Amy.  She had a terrific voice.  Where did she come from, I wonder, and can we expect more from her? 

Most women in the media have shrill voices and they can be trained to modulate to a lower range.  In testing it's been found that people tune out higher pitched voices.  You'd think colleges that train school teachers would have a class in speech that addressed this issue.

Advertisers seem to think they are using this to their advantage, thinking that a higher pitched voice for a commercial will be listened to, but in reality I just turn down the volume or shut it off for a period of time.  Maybe others do, as well. 

Anyway, it might be good to hear from Amy again, and all you guys who'd like some oestrogen on the show might pay attention.
You must be high. That news segment was brutal. She sounded like some goth teenager with that monotone voice.

Don't mention gags. It only gets brig excited, and she has to go down to the basement and 'readjust' them again.

Didn't you get the PM that said the "there's no PM thing" is a hoax?

I hope not, she seemed as animated as a SatNav. It sounded like she was coached by Leo: "Now, REMEMBER...Amy-to-sound reallyweirdandput words. Together. so PEOPLE thinkyou're. An. Idiot."

It seems to be the house style of that segment to sound as balled up as possible.
She seemed a bit inexperienced to me, but the sound was really great.  I'm comparing her with some tv female newscasters and reporters and guests who are very nasal and high pitched.

Non-abrasive, I would say.

Does it have the do-hickey on it, that changes the molecular structure of the grass?

ok ill spill the beans.
mv is going to let arts lawn grow another inch before he (mv) cuts it. and MV will then cut "grass circles" into the lawn.
also all the shrubs will no longer be the standard rounded rectangle we all are used to seeing, they will  be shaped like a grays's head.

Aha, that's exactly what I suspected, altho I have to admit I didn't see that change from the standard rounded rectangle thing coming.

Hi Zenman!  Can you conceal yourself nearby while MV is mowing?  What a great show that would make if you could record the Great Glyph Mowing in progress.  8)

He's the board owner, as you may have suspected. Sorry I don't have a more smart-assed answer.   ;D

I usually do, starr, but the film always comes out blank. (I think it probably has something to do with the loop antennas.)

Isn't there some new technology you can use to block that with?  Wait a minute!  Film?  We use digital stuff now.  I think you'd better jump in your time machine and reset your coordinates.

I know what you're saying, starr, but I can't see spending a ton of money on some new fangled device when my Polaroid usually works just fine.

Good point.  Beside, any pics you get are authentic.  Ya just can't photoshop Polaroid . . . can ya?

Geez i feel like i am dealing with a bunch of high school click masters here.
Is it that big of a deal to say what "MV" stands for and whom that person is/does/ in relation to Art  Bell.  If  you want to have your status in tack, you can always send me a private message
thanks...i think

Oh, dear...that doesn't sound good.  :'( :'( :'( :'( :'(

Maybe he's cutting back to four days a week?  That would be okay with me.  I hope it's nothing drastic like he's only doing weekends.

And panic ensues.
