Oh, noes!!! Not another bump! Voice of Safetyfork and all kinds of VoM links inside.

The first call (that I wanted to re-do, but didn't). Note: the end of the call is NSFW. And the second call to finish it off.

The public service portion of this post/broadcast: the original, the redux and a bump, and another bump. And, finally, the wiki page is growing.

Yay!

I'll take advantage of this thread to link to mine, which I finally did on Sunday. It's not very interesting, but you know.

Thanks! I love the voicemail I got the other day -- it's a keeper.

matildaben, we'll just keep reminding you!

On Preview: Well played.

And a lovely message, too, miko. I thought it set the scene for the NYT hunt very well.

posted by safetyfork 16 January | 16:01

ultimately, the hunt was unsuccessful. I was even checking neighbor's yards. Often I brag about how civilized Northern New England can be because you can get the Times there...but apparently getting it at your home, that's another story. And to me, the best part of a Sunday paper is that you can read it without getting outta your jammies, so if you have to go out and get it at the store, it kills the thrill.

I can only get cell reception outside, so it made sense to combine the tasks.

new thought:...safetyfork, maybe you could get your phone-message guy to call the Times distributor for me. He'd get their attention.

Sorry the hunt yielded no paper. Now, I did have the urge to get my caller's number from the phone company and introduce myself. If I follow-up, I'll inquire if he does freelance voice talent. Best of luck.

Do not give your phone number to safetyfork!

A) So I wanted to talk longer than 5 minutes
ii) I couldn't figure out how to do it with Audioblogger
ii.a) Yes, I am weak
3) So you can download a bedtime story from Streamload instead.
quatro) If someone with more Audioblogger-fu can figure out how to get the file from point Streamload to point Voice O'Mecha, you have my permission.
XXX) I am tempted to give safetyfork my number.

In which Metachat gives me another reason to spend £55.00 on the latest version of iLife.
So I can get the "Garageband integration with iChat."
I totally want to do a another voice piece with special guests, but I don't need another excuse to send more money to Steve Jobs.

//strokes credit card. Puts it away. Takes it out. Puts it away. Argggghhhh.
