   Okay, is it wrong that I'm a 51-year-old, married man who is developing a crush on the woman who does the 4Noggins radio spots?

   Doesn't matter. A British accent gets me every time.

   It's hot! I have a GPS that speaks to me with a British accent.

   Not a fan of accents of any kind. Though I have an accent to some.

   Ha ha ha! That's funny.

   I actually wrote and produced the ad for 4noggins.com under Rich's instructions that he wanted a female with a British accent as the voice-over because he thinks it's hot.

   I guess he's not the only one.

    Here's some more behind the scenes info -

    After Rich gave me instructions, I wrote the script. While writing it, I imagined hearing the female voice with British accent in my head - so I had a very specific "read" in mind.

    I had a few different women audition for it, but none of them read it the way I heard it in my head.

    So, I picked the voice I liked the best, knowing I could get her to read it differently. To get her to voice it the way I wanted, I actually recorded myself mimicking a female with a British accent.

    I also originally imagined it with a smooth jazz music track, but everyone else liked it better with no music.

    Here are both versions -

    No Music:

    Kevin:

    Thought we were going to hear your version!

    And, yeah, I definitely prefer it without the music.

    I might still have it on my laptop. I'll try to remember to check next time I boot it up.
