You and everyone else. I did a Google search and even discarding the obvious fake generated hits "Buy a book on oblivated possum mullifacations", there are a lot of people who are looking for or who have created tones for that ring.

I TOO have wanted that tone!

And the buzzy ring from "Brazil" to assign to annoying callers.

Cool Ringtones

Somewhat of a tangent, but a friend of mine assigned all their Windows event sounds to .WAVs of Hal 9000 . . .

The machete part was funny but you still think too much of yourself.

gawd grow up. And get that god damm quote off your profile ID.

I used one of them for a Windows event. I think it was the Critical Stop event that I tagged with: "I'm sorry Dave, I'm afraid I can't let you do that."

Well I can rent the movie and record the tone. How do I get from *.wav to a ringtone?

Another good one is: "This type of thing has happened before, Dave, and it's always been attributed to human error..."

In like Flint and Our man Flint were two spoofs of the James Bond genre.

James Coburn played Flint, the super-cool spy.

Yet Bond himself was a spoof - created by Ian Fleming in the late 50's, Bond was meant to satirise the cold war and the american obsession with orgranised crime (hence SPECTRE). It didn't work and Fleming was forced to create 'The man from U.N.C.L.E' as a spoof of a spoof, with THRUSH being the spoofed villain of a spoof villain......

In that case, "Get Smart" was a spoof of a spoof of a spoof!

Just so you know (and I'm not saying anybody cares) but I'm not named after the movie character "Flint" . . .

The Mac OS was the first to allow you to attach sounds to actions. About 15 years ago, for a short while, when you inserted a floppy into my mac you got the diner sound from When Harry Met Sallie.

There's a part of me that never grows up.

If you hadn't behaved like an asshole when you showed up, your welcome might have been different.
