PTB only texts me. Before reading this I was a bit upset I never got a face to face, now I think I'm relieved.

oh yeah, and while lifetime movies are frightening, especially when written by the illiterate, i think fantasia is fantastic.

when ever I think of the fates I think how they were portrayed in the disney movie "Hercules," which by the way is a favorite.

Exactly how many voices go on in there ?

If you need theme music, the metal band Disturbed wrote a great song for that appropriately titled 'Voices'.
