Better, faster, stronger

Ages ago, I was lamenting about some shortfalls of the internet at that point in time (2007).

Well, my friends, the internet has evolved. Risen to the challenge.

I now have the trombone WAH WAH WAH sound to set as a ringtone when “adults” call—the “voice” of Charlie Brown’s teacher.

And also, the soundbite from when Samantha twitched her nose on Bewitched. Works great for a text notification.

The resource for the sound clips above also provided me with a long-sought-after quality ringtone of the bionics sound.

I was a bit astonished to discover Huey’s date—whom he found himself stranded on a desert island in the “Stuck With You” video—to be the wife of Pierce Brosnan. Not at the time the video was shot, but eventually. Small world, indeed.

In fact, there is a blog written by a published author where he seeks out many of the “Who’s that girl?” from the decade of excess’s most memorable music videos.

For example, did you know the stunning blue-eyed girl the Boss pulls onto the stage in the “Dancing in the Dark” video went on to star in a quasi-popular sitcom in the 90s?

The more you know! I am still waiting on the internet’s ability to deliver smell, however.
