ha! don't i sound more like some out-of-touch operator? "thank you for calling, we appreciate your phone call; unfortunately, all our operators are busy but if you'd like to hold on...."
gloop! i'm all sing-songy. wheeWHAAwheeWHAAA. i can do those public announcements at airports: the RED zone is for LOADING and unloading of PASSENGERS only....
hey cathy! some people would beg to differ....but you should try it!
did you try the 661-BLOG number? that didn't work for me, so i used the 415 number at the first page of audioblogger.com. don't know if you want to deal with the expense, but it was only pennies for me....
Super Impressive Santos! Now if only you could get your computer to have a 'scratch n sniff' screen then I would be happy! Imagine smelling all your pics! WOO!
You have a nice voice!! :) You'll put any irate customer at ease. Ever considered a career in telemarketing or at a call center? Heehee. And I like green bananas too!
I'll give it a try but it may be a wee bit pricey if I have to call the states. Could you call for me? You just have to say any "ai" sounds as "oi" and put a rising intonation on statements e.g.
hi bex! if you scratch and sniff my screen it smells like dog slobber and vinegar (i use vinegar and water to clean my 'puter screen :))....
hi toni! my customer service is way more menacing: you want WHAT?! louder too :) very frowny :( i would be fired after one customer!
anthony--don't tempt me. you'd be horrified. yewd baee hawrfied? everything i've ever learned about an australian accent i learned from kath & kim. actually, no, my friend judith taught me a phrase to keep repeating: "I'm from Perth, where are you from?" which is pretty durn amusing, but probably very very wrong.
anthony--it is u.s./u.s. territory numbers only at the moment. sorry. (i don't know why there's not internationalization on this yet!! grrrrr!!!)
leff did one without using audioblogger. (he uses drupal for his site, so he could call the number either.) i can ask him how he did it and email you if you'd like! :D!
Santos Kimmy! Oim from Perth where are yoooo from? Oim from Perth too. Do you know Macca? Macca? Played footy, went out with Kate. Aww shit yeah Macca, yeah, he was the year above me in school.
I'll look into this skype thing but may just get a dicount cardy and call some lucky individuals after night at pub.
That is just so cool. I really didn't expect your voice to sound like that. It sounds so...don't really know how to describe it. Actually, I was expecting you to sound more tita-ish. LOL!
Maybe you can read all of your posts from now on. =) That would be fun!
Who doesn't?
ReplyDeletei wish we could leave audio comments on other people's blogs, then she might have audio blips of all the folk who like robots, too.

ReplyDelete...thrown in your face. aaaaaauuuuugggggghhhh!!!!! MY EYES!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI'm afraid I'd have stage fright.
ReplyDeleteBy the way - when I saw the name of you post I thought it was going to be in defense of the banana - it's been taking quite a bashing on Jeanne's blog
oh, nene, the haters. it's gonna take a lot more than that for me to put pom poms down.
ReplyDeleteA few times I've been around that track
So it's not just gonna happen like that....
Let me hear you say, this **** is bananas
B-A-N-A-N-A-S!
My eyes have had worse, much worse.
ReplyDeleteThis seems to be a Stateside thingy as it doesn't like my phone number. Ah well. My nasal twang will have to remain hidden.
