Project started out to have something to do with horse sounds. Such as neighing, snorting or walking.

I found the “tranquil” sound of “Peace of the country” then the “At Post” clips and decided to create a “Trip to the horse races”.

The following audio clips were used (www.freesounds.com)

25069_laurent_Peace_of_the_country
33848_acclivity_HorseGoingBy
18231_dobroide_20060419.horse.snort
63753_RDB_atpost
72757_Berboncan_Fire_Alarm

For the first audio clip that I have ever done, I am satisfied. I would have liked the horse going by to be a bit longer and I would have liked to find a better bell sound and added more sounds at the track. Otherwise I am content.

Was watching Huckabee on FOX yesterday and this is supposed to be available for Christmas for around $400!! For those who can afford it.

It just connects to the XBox 360.

Social Networking websites

Social Networking websites:

I realize I am behind the times and sort of refuse to do FaceBook, Twitter etc but I was curious just how big this social networking was so I went to faithful Wikipedia and was very surprised. They listed over 139 site and there appears to be many more. ENOUGH!!!!! Guess I am really out-of-touch.

Some of these are disturbing but didn’t find one compass. You need to create one!! But I do agree they are stunning.
