is their any music player out there (free) that can reverse music for you? whether it be a website or free download. i need one of those for a video i'm making. --Randoman412 (talk) 00:33, 27 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Audacity. If you go to our article on it, you can find a link to the website for the free download. It can do many effects on audio, including reverse.--El aprendelenguas (talk) 01:04, 27 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Commercial's dialog

edit

(a flat-nosed 18-wheeler drives down a 2-lane road in a desert. Haze is seen around them.)

(The truckers spot an office woman sitting at a desk on the side of a road. They slam the brakes and stop near her.)

(Truck driver rolls down window)

Truck driver: What are you doin' in the middle of the road??

Office woman: So you're headed to Fresno?

Truck driver: Fresno, right.

Office woman: This is the road to Albuquerque.

Truck driver: How'd you know we were headed to Fresno?

Office woman: The boxes told us.

Truck driver: The boxes told you??

Office woman: RFID tracking- keeps tabs on all shipments nationwide.

Truck driver: (talking to passenger/co-driver) The boxes told us we were lost.

Co-driver: Maybe the boxes should drive!

Truck driver: Ha-ha. Very funny.


I remember that commercial as part of a series of IBM "help desk" commercials. I didn't find it on YouTube, but I did find a website with a video of the commercial. (It was the number one Google result for IBM help desk commercial.) --Bavi H (talk) 05:51, 27 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]


Freddy vs Jason

Can anyone tell me what song plays when the credits roll at the end? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Neon6419 (talkcontribs) 17:37, 27 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'd google part of the lyrics in quotes and see what you get. Then once you have the name of the song, you can go to Google Video and probably see a music video to make sure you have the right song. Useight (talk) 18:23, 28 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
