Anyone besides me?

[Samwise]

I have AOL. Some time ago, on the "Welcome" page, where all those announcements and whatnot flash by, they offered "celebrity voices" for your AOL Mail; namely one Mr. Elijah Wood as Frodo. He was the only LOTR character offered that I could see.
Anywho, since then I've had "Frodo" telling me "Welcome", "You've got mail", and "Goodbye". smilies/wink.gif Anyone besides me have this?
"What did you see?" said Pippin to Sam, but Sam was too deep in thought to answer.

[Raefindel]

No! But it sounds cool!

[Lady_Galadriel]

I don't have it, but it sounds great!!! smilies/biggrin.gif smilies/biggrin.gif

[Lothiriel Silmarien]

SAMWISE I DO I DO!!!!!! I saw that and I had to have Elijah say Welcome, You've Got Mail, and Goodbye! And I always talk back to him, even though he's not even there! I know I'm pathetic. When he says welcome, I say Hey Elijah, and when he says Goodbye, I say Bye Lij! But the only bad thing is that the rest of my family thinks he's a girl! How could you say that!? He sounds just fine!

[Lady_Galadriel]

thats what everyone says!!! I hate that! It's like cant you tell he's a guy?! smilies/mad.gif

[Lothiriel Silmarien]

I know!!!! I mean, if that was a girl, then that'd be a REALLY manly sounding girl!

[Samwise]

LOL, Lothiriel, that's cool! Hee--when he says "Welcome" I tell him "hello", "You've Got Mail", I thank him, and "Goodbye" I tell him goodbye, too. smilies/wink.gif
A girl??? Huh??? I showed my mom a picture of him when I found one when she was in the vicinity, so she knows he's not a girl. She never said he sounded like one--she said it sounded like he had a cold. smilies/tongue.gif
It was Sam's turn that day to take the first watch, but Aragorn joined him. The silence grew until even Sam felt it. The occasional movements of his feet became loud noises. Sam could hear his own joints creaking, if he stirred.

My mom just has a slight crush on Frodo. She made me download the Frodo screensaver. When I showed her a picture of Elijah, she said that she liked Frodo better. smilies/rolleyes.gif

[Gorothlammothiel]

No Samwise, I wasn't aware that Elijah's voice was available and I don't suppose it is anymore smilies/frown.gif

[Lothiriel Silmarien]

Yes it is! I put it in my favorites box!!! Hold on, I'll get it! I hope it's still available though, pretty sure it is.

I found it!!!
Grr, it won't work. There's no web address and I can't put the little heart in this page, so I'm gonna PM you. And if that doesn't work, then just tell me your e-mail address because I know it goes in e-mails.

Eurecka! I've got it!!!! It took me like thirty minutes to figure out just the right place to downloade it, but alas! Now when i sign on frodo says welcome and when i get mail he says youve got mail!!! So cool!!!! I'm feeling like a computer genious right now... okay well not like a total genious... but defenitly smarter..
(i know there are lots of mispellings here but im too tired to spell properly)

[Samwise]

Lothiriel, did you ever get it?

Sigh. I recently downloaded AOL 7.0 and now none of my original greetings work, nor can I seem to get them to! Oh, well... smilies/frown.gif

[QUOTE]"But Mr. Frodo, he knows he's got to find the Cracks of Doom, if he can. But he's afraid. Now it's come to the point, he's just plain terrified. That's what his trouble is. Of course, he's had a bit of schooling, so to speak--we all have--since we left home, or he'd be so terrified he'd just fling the Ring into the River and bolt. But he's still too frightened to start. And he isn't worrying about us, either: wether we'll go along with him or no. He knows we mean to. That's another thing that's bothering him. If he screws himself up to go, he'll want to go alone. Mark my words! We're going to have trouble when he comes back. For he'll screw himself up all right, sure as his name's Baggins. "

She owns practicaly every Elijah Movie ever!

The War, The Facilty{sp?}, Huck Finn{hez so cute in it}, Forever Young, Flipper, The Bumblebee Flies Away, etc....

[Lothiriel Silmarien]

Samwise, the same thing happened to me! I was hoping I could get help here, I've been trying to get his voice back for like the past couple of hours! I had to download 7.0 (we had to re-install aol, so why not get 7.0) and I can't seem to find out how to get his voice back. I did it last time, but now I forgot how to do it! If you find a way, please help!! And if I somehow find it out, I'll let you know!

[Samwise]

Oh, well. 7.0 gave me so many problems (ie;kicking me off line when I'd been on anywhere form 5 to 15 mins.), that I went back to 5.0. Granted, it's slower, but it doesn't kick me off when I'm in the middle of an important project! smilies/wink.gif Also, I got my
"Little Mr. Wood" voice back! smilies/biggrin.gif

This is a pic I'd never seen of the little guy before. Sheesh. I kid you not (so to speak) most pics of him (like this one) make me think of one of the munchkins at the preschool I work at! Yeah, I know he's 21, but.... smilies/rolleyes.gif
Sam fell on his knees, trembling. "Get up, Sam!" said Gandalf. "I have thought of something better than that. Something to shut your mouth, and punish you properly for listening. You shall go away with Mister Frodo. "

[Lothiriel Silmarien]

That happens to you too, Samwise?! smilies/eek.gif I always get kicked off!! It's so annoying! And we switched the phone lines on it, so it takes me about 20 minutes to sign on sometimes, so when it kicks me off I get so frustrated!! I like that picture of Elijah smilies/biggrin.gif

[Samwise]

Yeah, me, too. smilies/frown.gif So, it was a choice between constantly getting kicked off or slow connection--I chose slow connection, as I can always go do other stuff while a site is loading...
Yeah, he's a little cutie, isn't he? An' from the look of it, he's not wearing the blue contacts...hm... smilies/wink.gif
Back to the topic, however, was there anyone else out there able to get the little guy's voice?
(sorry, like I said, I keep thinking, 'kid from the preschool where I work... smilies/rolleyes.gif )
."They are sailing, sailing, sailing over the Sea, they are going into the West and leaving us," said Sam, half chanting the words, shaking his head sadly and solemnly.

[Galadel Vinorel]

No, I don't have it. Probally because I don't have AOL. Oh, well. **sighs** I wonder if you can get it if oyu don't have AOL.... Any suggestions on how to get it if you don't have AOL? smilies/frown.gif
