Actually, I'll take that as a compliment - usually those movies cheerleaders are HOT!

That was great, mark! LOVE the accent. I would've guessed Scottish, but I don't know all those regional dialects very well... Sexy accent though!

Lol. You can just about tell that your first language isn't English, but boy, those KGB are good

I think Burns sounds pretty different to be honest, but similar to Xox.

Mark, love it

Sorry its kinda long (3:30 minutes) and my reading is bad in places - it was a long story to read without messing up!

Tale of the Three Brothers

Enjoy!

OMG - could you read me a bed time story for my iPod? I could sooooo listen to your voice all day/night

Really?? You're not just saying that.. are you? If not, THANK YOU, ADAM!! You've made my day

Burns, in that recording you reminded me of an old-time filmstrip narrator. I kept waiting for the beep tone that advances the frame. That's not to say yours isn't a lovely voice, mind you

Actually, you sound somewhat like an Aunt of mine who lives in Kentucky. From what I remember, at least. I haven't talked to her in ages.

Xox, interesting. You've got that young, spring chicken quality to your voice.

Mark has a cool voice.

Thanks, GH I was trying to make it somewhat interesting and not have a monotone, boring voice throughout the whole thing. Came off a little corny in spots but oh well

That's why they are for eye candy purposes only

Haha Burns. I just saw your video, cool voice! I realized I did the same thing with the book. lol

Thanks, Xox I loved the excerpt you picked. I had to read through mine 2 full times before I recorded it, and I STILL messed up in places, lol

hah I made the video two times. = p Im so stupid, the first time I ended up laughing a lot, and saying "uhm uhhh err". lol. Second time I just got into it.
I ended up sounding stiff but ah well.

Of course not, I wouldn't just say these things for no reason! I luuuuuurve the American accent on girls! I tell ya, if I ever married an American girl, she would be the one wearing the trousers, there is no way I could say no to her voice And yours is wonderful! Just don't ever ask me to do anything because I could never say no lol

(BTW wearing the trousers is an expression, meaning she is the boss, not that I have homosexuallity issues, and like girls to look like men, just so we are clear lol)

... ... Sorry, that was amusing

I agree with you though. I wouldn't mind some one else being in charge, at all. A woman in charge is awesome - and hot.



(But don't think I support Hiliary Clinton though.)

Something else we agree on!

Well actually, not so much agree, but something I have come accustomed too! Kind of don't get a choice do you. Men like to think they are in control, but it's the women, who let the men think they are in control, who are actually in control

If you get what I mean.

AMEN on that! The woman always controls the strings of the puppet that is the man. Any man who says different either doesn't realise this to be the truth, is too "macho" to admit what he knows to be the truth, or is a controlling @sshole. I'm not saying us men should cower and kiss @ss all the time but, on some fundamental - often behind the scenes - level, the woman always has more power.

As the saying goes: If she's not happy, nobody's happy. And that's as true as it gets.

lol, you two need to give lessons to about 95% of the male population! They could really learn something from you guys!
