I have sent off my list to my voice guy. Thank you all for all your suggestions. I spent a ton of time on youtube finding most of the references people have mentioned and decided to go in a slightly altered direction.... Walter is just going to have to speak with different voices. I.e. a British guy doing the Indian guy from "Short Ciruit" just isn't funny --Now, the actual Indian guy doing his lines is funny. So walter is just going to have his "standard" voice and at times will just have to interject [sp] funny quips. So there. In addition, I think he might have some background music as well --You know, just some "strolling around the house" music...
Thanks again, guys.
Well folks,
Walter is all wired up and I have re-coded all of his sub-systems. I am now syncing up personality to the main drive code. This involves new head moves (you should see my new head "teaching pendant"), eye colors and of course, speach. Now I am about to send off a new list of phrases to my Walter voice guy in the UK so he can start recording walter's new lines. I have a pretty good list going but I am very open to any suggestions you guys might have. Bear in mind that walter is now (almost) a "stays on" pet... He is a cm from docking and charging himself so really, I am wicked close to having a true electronic pet that roams the house all day long. Think about anything you might say on a stroll or what you might muse to yourself on an average boring day.

Now we have to take a detour.” “How’s that different from any other trip I take with you!?” “Will you stop fooling around and ask someone for directions already?!” “No, I know exactly where we are!” “Do not!” “Do too!” “Now look what you did. Ran over a pet again!” “Are you calling me blind?!” “I am calling you stubborn!” “Nag!” “Fool!” “Don’t look now, but your MPS is showing.” “OH, you’re the one to talk!” “I can’t heaaar youuuuu!”
