By request: Jabberwocky, by Lewis Carroll (in "the 900-number voice"). See how much I love you?




`Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

"Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch!"

He took his vorpal sword in hand:
Long time the manxome foe he sought --
So rested he by the Tumtum tree,
And stood awhile in thought.

And, as in uffish thought he stood,
The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,
And burbled as it came!

One, two! One, two! And through and through
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head
He went galumphing back.

"And, has thou slain the Jabberwock?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!'
He chortled in his joy.

`Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

I could only hear "*something, something* and the flying toads/coves?" something like that and then silence. Maybe my realplayer didn't like it...

Please ignore previous posts... Real Player sucks. Media Player played and you... sound... fabulous!

I can't wait to *hear* more from you... I may poke [livejournal.com profile] cerrunos about getting a paid account... I want to play the voice journal game.

Wow. What a terrifically unlikely combination! I laughed so hard, I had to play it twice because I missed bits the first time through.
