3 point update in audio? I've been wondering what you all sound like. Want to do an audio update this time?
Ehm, haven't metachatters been sharing music audio files?
Another option of course is a youtube video if you have a visual you want to add. Just film yourself f.i.
Is there a site I can upload an audio file that will stream it from that page instead of making me download it? I've wanted this feature a couple of times and haven't found anything too useful.
Stewriffic, how nice to meet your face and voice! Love the haircut, and did anyone ever tell you you have great eyes and a great smile? (Not coming on to you, happily married and all, its just the truth.)
So, how do we do the audio update thing? Please explain in simple, simple terms. I know I can find my microphone somewhere but unsure how to upload audio file.
Ha, this is awesome. It's so great to see and hear you.
Stewriffic shows her haircut. Looks good! And janetland has a cat that meows when asked to. And tps and stynxno do a comic back and forth. And rmless lives in a blueish dark cave.
More please!
Due to stewriffics great example I made a video. Since I recently bought a stupidly expensive camera and it can take pictures and video at incredibly low light conditions.
And then I was overcome with self consciousness.
Feeling embarassed about my braces and mannerisms.
But I've decided not to make an alternate version. So here goes.
Thank you all so much for sharing these. Stewriffic, I keep threatening to come see you, and seeing your video increased my stalker tendencies. I believe Jeremy Irons is jouke's father, which is a very good thing jouke. TPS and styx, looking good.
Bit late to the party, but here you go, in all my high-def glory. (Apologies for the ginormous direct video link, but flickr thinks that I talk too long and Picasa sped me up to 2 seconds of keyframes.)
Well, approx. half are in English. So you'd get pretty far.
The rest are Dutch, French and German.
I used to seek out second hand books. And be all about high culture.
Nowadays I don't read as much anymore. But enjoy my bookcase as a nice wallpaper.
Maybe we should do a metachat post where we take a picture of our bookcase!
Snob-thunderdome!
TPS and styx, did you practice? Because you totally cracked me up. Also, TPS, I totally hate you for having stunning teeth and pink eye that is somehow invisible.
Janetland, do you sing? Your voice is melodious.
Jouke, at first I thought you hired some handsome actor to play you. It really is not fair when a man is as good looking as you. And I too would like to root about in your (English) books.
Obscure reference, way to do the split second timing. And somehow I feel you are a killer chess player.
sysinfo, good luck on the house sale. The hats and humor were both fabulous.
I sing in the shower and to the radio in the car, and sometimes I write silly songs to sing, such as "The Medicine Song" I wrote for a cat I used to have.
Lighter Later Day is the day that an hour is taken from morning and added to evening. . .(there was an expanded explanation, plus a bit of schmoopy timed out at the end. . .probably a good thing)

We practiced a little and then our first take was too long so the video you're seeing is our second take. We cut some of our less funny jokes. And yes, I did have a somewhat non-pink version of the pink eye.
