Thank you very much. :)

I used Audacity to record and sendspace to host. Sendspace is free but has ads. I use SendspacePro.

P.S. Oh, and I got error messages for yours as well.
 
Now we've all got the hang of it anyone care to give this a go?

She was big of heart,
something never beaten out of her.
Laughing at the little things,
life's absurdities, yet in a moment
breaking her heart
over someone else's sad story.
She was lovely in my eyes
but all she saw was ugliness
ingrained from long ago,
beauty shone from her soul
and many loved her.
When sadness shadowed her eyes,
she was in that haunted memory,
where tears flowed silently
and I could never follow.
Fragile wings that try to fly
I fear to crush them in my hand.

So, if any one knows a bit o' licks of Blues, I'd so much like to hear y'all perform this'un...

This Ain't No How The Blues

Oh I ain't singin' no muddy water blues
No I ain't singin' those muddy water blues
Cause I got Perrier water ta choose,
And I ain't wearin' them blue suede shoes.

Oh I ain't cryin' no beat up truck blues
No I ain't cryin' those beat up truck blues
Cause I got an Explorer that's in the news
And I ain't payin' hard time dues

Oh I ain't broke,
Cause my Trust Fund just matured.
Yeah it's no joke,
I'm Canadian, haven't you heard?
Gallery happenings on opening night
Champagne and caviar treatin' me right
Right there with the well-to-dos
Wearin' designer Gap-trendy-wanker denim blues.

There ain't no way I can find the blues.
No there ain't no way I can find the blues.
There be looks in the family tree,
And my luck is damned good, don't ya see?
And my baby's so fuckin' sexy,
He be lovin'
Nobody else
but
Me!

Oh I ain't singin' no bring me down blues
No I ain't singin' no bring me down blues
Cause I got lovin friends in alla you's
And I ain't singin'
No I ain't cryin'
I ain't singin' no bring me down
blues.

I get a "file not found" message when I click on the links. Not sure why, since the URL looks good. Can you still click on them and hear the file?

yes I can hear them ok ..... sigh now the fun has gone out of it if no-one can hear me

I fear for your sanity. Or your hearing.

no need to worry about my sanity that went years ago

Well, while you're sulking, send the files to me and let's see if I can hear them or not...I can't speak, yet, but I can certainly try and listen. ;)

You're very welcome and I thank you in return. But you have to tell me...what IS the Wilson Cycle???

The Wilson Cycle is one of the key precepts of plate tectonics. In it continents rift apart and drift away from each other, creating an ocean basin via sea-floor spreading. The growing ocean is complemented by subduction at another continent-ocean boundary, with oceanic lithosphere being subducted under the continent. Eventually two continents will collide, subduction stops, and the 2 continents are sutured to become one. This is currently what is happening with India colliding with Asia, forming the Himalayas. The cycle repeats, often with the same major blocks coming together and then apart. Collisional tectonics is a major source of mountain building (orogeny). The East African Rift is the most likely candidate for continental splitting now.
 
Sometimes I have trouble hearing as well - no separate speakers.
Guess I'm old school -
like children, computers should be seen but not heard!:rolleyes:
