much like a six-year-old might, when watching "jeopardy!" I often emulate the sound of the "daily double." you know, the synthy "dee doo dee doo dee doo dee doo" noise. last night while watching "jeopardy!" on the tivo-like-device, my attempts sounded more like "scrrii---ooo--rrr--oohhh."
over the course of a few hours, between getting off of work and going to bed, I managed to almost completely lose my voice. the high-frequency component was the first to go. at this point, the only way I can make sound come out of my vocal cords is if that sound is very deep. which means all who have the pleasure of my company today will be treated to my new, deeper, raspier voice. that is until I lose the low frequencies, too, at which point they will be treated to my unintelligible whisper. of course if things get that bad, I suppose I can always resort to other modes of communication. perhaps the infinitely expressive language of dance.

That's two posts! Buildings are collapsing! And Michael is dancing!
There's only one possible conclusion, the world is coming to its end.

Once the voice totally goes, you may have to resort to the infitely more-expressive language of "swing dance"...just make sure I'm around to witness it.
