For some reason, I’ve always wanted to do a flawless Sean Connery emulation. I love his accent and the sound of his voice. “I’ll take ‘Swords’ for 500, Trebek.” 😃 ---

Sinatra would be cool, but I’d probably have to go with Christopher Walken. ---

I’d like to be able to produce a sonic boom, and then have people give me money so I’d do it somewhere else. Apart from singing like Sinatra/Bowie/McCartney, etc., there’s gotta be a way of making good cash by producing a specific sound. Maybe if I, a guy, could flawlessly mimic Minnie Ripperton, I could make a huge living just off quick bar bets – go out for an hour or so and come back with $10,000. ---

James Earl Jones. I’m a soft spoken bass-baritone, but I can move walls with my voice when I really open up. It would be great to have a little deeper of pitch and just a little more resonance.
