Oh, darn. I thought the "three tenors" version was kind of fun. I prefer
Pizzeria Uno anyway. (The Veggie Lovers deep-dish is one vegetarian dish
that DOESN'T taste like penance!)

The local SF Bay Area theater magazine, "Callboard," periodically runs
articles on breaking into the voice-over business. BTW, a story on
voice-over actors on the NPR program "Marketplace" mentioned that Mark
Hamill is considered one of the best in the business. ("Voice-over" also
covers actors who do the Mel Blanc/June Foray thing for cartoons!) :-)
