I've tried to play it three times, but the audio starts skipping after about 8-10 minutes. Has anyone else had this problem? What am I doing/not doing?
Aaaarrrrggghhhh!!!

I love the character notes! It made the whole thing make more sense! I was playing it tonight on the computer and my husband fell asleep after about 10 minutes! So I guess it works!

I'm still having a problem listening to the *words* because I can't get past the sound of his *voice*!!!
But I'll keep on trying. I am a martyr to this task...

It's good to know I'm not the only one having problems with this. You can cry on my shoulder if you want to, GE2! I completely agree with you on the voice thing, reveuse! I didn't care what he was saying as long as he was saying it  ! It was very jarring to be half-hypnotized by his voice, only to have it skipping so much that I only heard every fifth word or so  . I'm *determined* to get through the whole thing at least once, though. *Sigh*...I really wish this was available on CD! I know it's very short, but if it could be combined with some of Ruf's other readings, that would be cool! Pen |

You can cry on my shoulder if you want to, GE2! Thanks, Pen! Did you get as far as the "you drive me wild..." breathy/growly bit? OMG *collapses in a quivering heap just thinking about it* I still say this must have been the weirdest script he's had to bring to life - I'd love to have heard the pitch from his agent: "Well, Rufus, you get to play a plant..." LOL |

I don't think I got that far...still trying, though! Some people talk to their plants. I bet even *fake* plants would start growing like mad after hearing Ruf ! All I could think of when I heard about the play was, "Does the tobacco plant cough every ten seconds?" Yes, I *know* I have a warped sense of humor . Pen |

Loved the review GE2 found...not least for its reference to Bill & Ben. I am still chuckling at the thought of Ruf in Nick Silver mode voicing an x-rated version of the flowerpot men. (Imagines those husky tones...."oh, little weeeed...")  ;D |

(Imagines those husky tones...."oh, little weeeed...") ;D Yeah, but even Rufus would have a hard time making "flob-a-lob" sound sexy!!!  (Are we both showing our ages here, Reveuse?) |

Maybe you should ask him to say 'flob-a-lob' next time you meet, just to prove the point? Can I watch for the reaction? ;D Showing my age? Absolutely not - don't know about you but I only caught B&B on re-runs. |

Maybe you should ask him to say 'flob-a-lob' next time you meet "Next time"? I wish! And I can't have made much sense when I did speak to him, so asking him to say that would make him send for the men in white coats!  (And I wish I hadn't mentioned the age thing now....) GE2 |

[ (And I wish I hadn't mentioned the age thing now....) GE2 I'm in the "you're as old as the man you feel" camp. LOL. After repeated listening to "Nick" I feel it may be in order to suggest that Ruf enters the relaxation tape market. Forget whale music and chanting, give me ambient Rufus. |
