What birthday present to offer your sibling "who has it all"?
Your mother's voice patched in his/her car navigation system.
Costs nothing to make, just take your parents out for a drive and let your mother read the directions from a map. Record the conversations from the back seat and choose
the most hilarious phrases. Next you need cooperation from your sibling's partner for a cover to get access to the car navigation system software unnoticed.
When you give the present you just hand over an envelope with a destination which is difficult to find. Make sure to bring a camcorder when you all 'go get the present'. It is not the destination that counts, it is what happens along the way... (The DVD of that ride is a present for your mom's birthday).
I look forward to the comments!

Navtones.com sells the Tomtom voices
http://www.navtones.../viewforum.php?f=1&
there is a 'wanted voices' forum called 'Your voice', but nothing about how to make your own custom voice, apparently it needs to be hacked still [rrr, Oct 19 2006]

I'm bunning this because it's a great joke to play on someone, although I better never be the butt of this prank! |

"You're not going to see her
again, are you?" |
|

"Turn that noise down! How can you even think with that noise going? " |
|

" Your cousin Margaret is going to Princeton. You could be going to Princeton if you buckled down and put your mind to it." |

(Left... left... left.... RIGHT!!!! just kidding, hehehe.) |

Or overdub the voice of a friend in the trunk? [link] |

"So I think I'm going to knock out the back wall and build a greenhouse. Just think how much the grandkids will love it and . . . oh, oh, oh, you were supposed to turn there." |

I want one with the voice of Kitt from "Knightrider". It would keep calling me Michael, and upon arriving at my destination, would play the theme tune. |

[jtp] inspired - I don't know if it's been done already, but there would certainly be a market for the sculpted tones of William Daniels coming out of your GPS. |
