I swear that my heavy duty paper shredder will burn out from overuse, especially if the paper screams.

Hey, you could make dolls out of it and market it as the ‘My Little Saddam’ kit.

i thought the blind could benefit also.
newspapers, magazines, and books (kind of late with audio books out), now the blind can use them.

now if it could record your answer, applications and surveys.

now, I just need money.

It will be just like the phone maze.

This could replace braille. All the braille books, signs, drive-up ATM instructions could be replaced by something like this.

Boy, I hope not. At least through braille, a blind person still gets to exercise their imagination in bringing the words to life. If all they’re doing is listening to paper literally talking, it’s no better than sitting in front of a television zoning out, in terms of the mental calisthenics.

I like a good audio book as much as anyone, but it’s still not the same (and, in my opinion, a lesser experience) as reading, whether through the eyes or through the fingertips.

Oh, ’cause I was certain you were talking about toilet paper.

I thought he was talking about prophylactics. (Wasn’t sure if the other word would go through…)
yikes!

Haha, that was my thought too.

You know they won’t stop at spoken warnings on cigarette packs. There will be voices telling us to be careful stepping on to escalators, crossing the street; packages of red meat will nag about fat, ice cream will tell us how many servings per package just to up the guilt factor when you super-size it. Yogurt cups will demand we purchase them instead of that ice cream. Fat free milk will disparage the 2 percent next to it. This is getting out of hand, isn’t it?

Talking money would be cool. I wonder what denomination would get the stereotypical “black” voice, even though you’re not supposed to be able to determine race by voice characteristics. I’m sure that Eddie Murphy would be signed for the gig, but Gary Coleman could really use a job.

As a packaging professional in an industry in which consumers misuse our products and flood our complaint phone lines (because they don’t read the instructions), I would love to be able to afford to integrate this into our cartons.

Ouch, what does this do to scratch and sniff?

Yeah, the exception I was thinking of was “Playboy.”

Oh, and Playgirl too! Yeah, thats the ticket!
