i also liked to write and put on plays for my mom. she recorded me and twin friends in a play about biker bunny rabbits. we had on my father's leather jacket/his clothes. i can't remember the storyline but that was the only time i was allowed to ride a bike in the house.

too bad she lost that tape when her sister's kids stole lots of her stuff.

my play about rats was also selected in the 4th grade by my teacher to be performed by the class. we all had to write a play using the words in our vocabulary list. in that story the rats had a butler who died while dancing and we also had a pet flea and some other stuff, too... my memories are fading, y'all.

i had this recorder (it's from home alone) and the main feature was being able to slow down your voice and made you "sound like an adult"
