If There WAS a “Magic Bullet”, I’d Be Wearing Kevlar

June 30, 2010 by Rowell

[Originally posted as a comment on my friend Pam Tierney’s excellent and introspective blog. My comment went on so long, it turned into a post of its own…which wasn’t the intent. So I’ll put it here too, even though Pam has first claim.] She was writing about the disappointment of realizing there wasn’t going to be any […]

Up All Night With “Uncle Paul”

June 27, 2010 by Rowell

Finally putting some videos on my refurbished voices2go.com website (see lengthy post below), I also wanted to include some of my old Betamax video from my three years with Paul Montgomery‘s tv show.

Why Keep On? One answer of many…

June 26, 2010 by Rowell

The Importance of Sound…and The Voice

June 15, 2010 by Rowell

I’ve always been fascinated with sound…especially the human voice. Never realized how really important that was until I saw this video today. It’s a little 8 month old boy, born deaf, who was successfully given “ear implants” that allow him to hear his mother’s voice for the first time. Despite the fact that he has been able to […]
