Vocaroo Reading Thread.

Pretty simple rules, right?

Here's me reading from A Game of Thrones by George R.R. Martin (page 190 if you're worried about spoilers).

i was a bit thorn between beowulf and geoffrey chausser because my modern english is horrendous!
http://vocaroo.com/?media=vp9WnYZHFz7kYmQAl
But netheless, whil I have tyme and space,
Er that I farther in this tale pace,
To telle yow al the condicioun,
Of ech of hem, so as it semed me,
And whiche they weren, and of what degree,
And eek in what array that they were inne,
And at a knyght than wol I first bigynne.

where have all the tripfags gone? being all superior is not just about knowledge of all the memes of the intellectual discourse but also their dramatick delivery.
i want to hear them now real bad.
