Please hang up and try again...
Hey ya'll I got this one off of an email, I thought this one was the best. It's actually pretty cool.
Whose voice is on the "please hang up and try again" phone message?
Chatty Kathy
Dear Chatty Kathy:
Anybody who's ever misdialed a phone number knows exactly whom we're talking about. She's the woman who pleasantly lets us know that our call cannot be completed as dialed. But who the heck is she? After a rather exhaustive hunt, we finally tracked down the woman behind the voice, the late Jane Barbe.
It's estimated that in the 1960s, Jane Barbe's friendly voice was heard by as many as 22 million confused callers a day. Too bad she wasn't paid on a per-call basis, eh? Though most famous for her reminders to "hang up and try again," Ms. Barbe was also a professional singer and lent her voice to many commercial jingles over the years.
As this article from CBS News explains, the drama major and Florida native took her "anonymous fame" in stride, though we imagine it must have been tempting to abuse her vocal powers. After all, who wouldn't like to tell telemarketers to buzz off in her perfectly polite tone? For those longing to listen to the Telephone Lady's melodic announcements, this site offers many of her " greatest hits.

I can't wait, but summer should be cool too, but I really wish we could go to LA for like 2 weeks at least, because one of my very best friends, who I write to like every year when I'm away there is finally going(to see her brother) and it sux that I can't go, it would have been so cool. But anyways, today was fun, hanging out with my new friends, hehe, I'm hoping they'll replace the old ones, jk. Then I think, I'm supposed to be going to Bali hai and then to my friend's house b4 the dance on friday. *cry *cry it's the last dance of the year and it's only 3 hours!! We all should throw end of the year parties!!!!!! gurr! But we'll just have to savor it. But anyways, I will cyaaas later then!!!!

Champions on Ice
Friday we went to see "Champions on Ice" Cuz mom got free tickets with backstage passes! and it was so cool! The show was great, but when we went back stage we got our ($15 dollar!! plus the free ones we got) programs signed by all of the people except for this one chick who passed us. It was so cool. O and also, kristi yamaguchi was sitting RIGHT in fron of me, (we were so close to the ice) she had her daughters with her and they were soooo cute! I got her auto graph too. Here's the pix we took, we also got one with Sasha Cohen but dad didn't press the button on the camera all the way down. >;(
