MCM Voices' British Accents Mad Skillz Payola.

A few weeks ago, fellow voice talent and friend Philip Banks challenged his colleagues to a competition to see who could perform the best British accent (native Brits obviously ineligible). A few dozen souls took up the challenge, including me. At the end of the week a tie was declared between my dear friend Maureen Egan– and me! The prize was a box of fine European chocolates, which arrived this week.

The chocolates and their presentation are a work of art. From Chocolaterie Wanders of Virginia, they are packed in a wooden box and come with a small field guide to aid in identification. This is important, because subtle differences in morphology can make some of these little bon bons as difficult to ID as the “confusing fall warblers”. All are, of course, heavenly. Their elegance and good taste are a true reflection of the man who sent them. Thank-you Philip!
