    Wouldn't it be nice to download whomever's voice we want, like ringtones?

    If I had a NAV in our Prius, I'd want the voice to be that of Gregory Peck as Captain Ahab. If somebody cut me off, I could play...

    "From hell's heart I stab at thee; for hate's sake I spit my last breath at thee. Ye damned whale (insert "SUV", "18 wheeler" etc.)

    And when it came time to make a turn off the freeway, the image flashing on the MFD screen would be that of Ahab moving his arm as he beckons his men to follow Moby Dick!

    Besides, Ahab always knows where a "Starbuck" is! Sorry Mr. Melville.

    Which just brought to mind Porky Pig:

    How about R. Lee Ermey as Gunnery Sergeant Hartman from Full Metal Jacket?

    Have his voice come over the speaker at a +10 setting to whatever the music is playing, "Now listen here, You grabastic piece of amphibian sh*t! You missed your turn back there! I'm gonna give you three seconds; exactly three-f*cking-seconds to wipe that stupid looking grin off your face and make a U-turn!

    Enjoy,
