Hoarse, Horse, Hortons & Hockey?

My voice is not HOARSE even though I have a slight cold...I've taken some Dristan pills the last 2 days and that is doing the job...Having this little cold was actually a benefit in giving me a bit of a twang for a commercial I did this afternoon for Haegles Western Wear and tack in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. They have over 1, 200 pairs of boots there! C'mon down Imelda Marcos!

TIM HORTONS coffee is my favourite. I probably stop there once a day. But today I had the privilege of breaking in a new TH coffee cup at home. Tim Horton was a HOCKEY player first and the NHL season is starting soon. I think the Vancouver Canucks are going to do better than expected this year. I could be switching my support to the Buffalo Sabres though. Two days ago I had the chance to audition for the opening of their TV broadcasts...I'll keep you posted on the outcome....hockey historians know both Vancouver and Buffalo entered the NHL in 1970. The Sabres were also the last team Tim Horton played for before dying in a car crash in early 1974.

Friday fun!

Today I did the new company voicemail for McKenzie Electric. Ross McKenzie and I used to work in radio together in the late '80's and I appreciated his call yesterday when he said he didn't want to do the message himself but thought of me to convey a professional image.

My On Hold Demo was also added today at: http://www.please-hold.net/VoiceTalent.html in Oregon. I also do on hold messaging for: http://www.onair.ca in Calgary and I love the creative intro to their website. Click on it yourself!

I am also the main voice for: http://www.greetingpros.com
Greg Krantz is my contact in Arlington, Virginia and the website will be alive and kicking for consumer consumption soon!....I need to consume some lunch now...
