I heard performed at the Clearwater Festival a version based on the Brothers Grimm. Must be many other versions.

i know... i just mean the way it sounds and how it's read... her voice is a little... strange-sounding, especially with the way the sentences are put together...

I thought it was effective. I also thought she was articulate and expressive.

I love the story telling. I have converted it to ogg (one of my favorite OSS formats) for safe keeping on my HD.

Can I have permission to put this on my site (in a password protected folder)?

Glad you enjoyed the story. I'll ask my wife about permission. Where is your site? and why password protected?

Try the other stories. Another scary one next week: The Haunted House.

Oh, well if you don't mind the public (I was just thinking of putting it on my site for a HD backup) and i wasn't sure if you wanted everybody to download it.

If you want I could be a mirror for a few hundred files.
My site is www.jqsoftware.com.
