I had a blast recording these in my best falsetto to match the existing 
smoothie prompts, but now that I've had to suffer through listening to a 
half-dozen messages with headers, I wonder how much trouble it would be 
to conjure up a key to be pressed to cut the headers and cut to the 
message itself.

If that could be done, then the timestamp should prolly be played 
backwards, time-of-day first.  If I'm getting messages very often, 
that's all I'd need to know of any use; then beep right along.

Pretty cool.
