I had an audio copy of Abbot an Costello's famous "Who's on First" routine and though it might give some of you a few grins. Even if your not a baseball fan. smile.gif

I've always loved that one. Is there a way in which I could copy it and send it to my sons? Of course, they all have PCs.  wink.gif

Hi Fiona,

I just emailed it to several people myself.  It's real easy.

First, click on Gary's "Who's On First" link, which opens the Web page with the audio.  Then copy the Web address from the top of the page.

Then you paste that Web address into your email.  The recipient will click on that Web address and will be taken to the Web page where the audio will load and play.

It's a .wav file so if you want to save it and have QuickTime Pro, just save it from the drop down menu on the left hand side of the Quicktime window....i think you know what I mean. I'll leave it on that web page for a few weeks. I d/led it from a site years ago and saved it on my OS9.1 G3. I tried to find it on the web last night before I found it on my HDD with no luck.

If anyone's interested, I posted a much better-sounding version (which is about three times the size as Gary's) here:

http://www.kbeartx.com/misc/abtncstlo_WOF56.mp3

IME and IMO, MP3 files are generally far superior, audio-fidelity-wise, to WAVs.

There is also this site for A&C fans:

http://www.abbottandcostello.net/

Enjoy!
