	his voice was OK but when a person is reading someone else's
stuff, it's acting.  most people can't act their way out of a paper
bag, as they say.  also acting needs a script.  reading back someone's
exact words - especially someone from a different native land - almost
never ever works.  no big deal, since he was sick as hell, it's not
like they try to do this each week.

	i like nicky's delivery a whole lot, not to mention his experience.
i don't mind ralph at all, actually.  maybe i am easy to please.
