9. Vito Corleone

exactly! Thanks for that.

McCain and his sinister voice give me the creeps. I can't understand how anyone could vote for the Godfather. Maybe that association is what makes people feel "secure." :shrug:

11. Naw, Raygun.

He was trying to make everyone think he's possessed by the dead essence of his hero, Raygun. (Or was that Teddy Roosevelt?)

[MadinMo]

12. Maybe he thinks it is sexy?

The Eskimo Kitten's voice is far from sexy, but you know he thinks she is..... and wishes he had that karma too.

13. IMHO, that was his "Good Father showing restraint" voice...

When my daughter was in high school, she explained her Dad's AMQ (Anger Mangement Quotient) to her friend like this: When he's not so mad, he yells loud, but watch out when he begins using his soft and reasonable voice - HE'S REALLY, REALLY TICKED and you can expect the boom to be lowered right on your head after which you will comply with any command while kissing the ring of the authoritarian that's lowering the boom!

That voice I took to be condescending or pitying, neither of which Americans need at the moment. McSane the POW clearly was setting up himself as the only adult in the room, begging to be heard and reasoning why the children must be either pitied for their immaturity/naivete or punished for partying too hardy right along and aside with the likes of their Washington/Wall Street hosts, sort of like Weekend at Bernies, moving old St Ronny around the room, the poor dear, dead but mingling well and throwing one heck of a great party.

Don't remember where, but it's been suggested that uninhibited screaming and yelling is so commonplace anymore that no one listens to it. If you want someone to actually pay attention to what is being said, whisper. The listener's natural "nosiness" will get the necessary results because the words stick around in the brain cells better as more concentration is needed to collect and save them.
