Stephen Hawking's electronic voice will soon be acquiring a British accent. It turns out that Hawking despises his American accent and is having an Indian firm outfit him with a more appropriate voice.
This article led me to recall the horribly offensive message that Ben and I once left on a friend's answering machine during high school. Yes, we were geeks. And 17 year-old geeks do stupid things -- stupid things like coming up with dirty pick-up lines for Stephen Hawking. Listen (208 k) if you aren't easily offended. Remember, we were only 17.
Apologies to Professor Hawking.
okay, I realize that commenting on a post that is so horrendously old is rather odd, but this made me laugh. WAY too much. so if you're going to hell, I'll be there with you.
