26 Hours and 43 Minutes of "Helter Skelter" Audio
Backporch Jugend contacted me.  He just uploaded the full unabridged version of Bugliosi's "Helter Skelter" on Audio Book.  It's 26 hours and 43 minutes... the entire book on audio.  Listen to it in the car!  Great for first dates!! LOL  Act now.  This is a limited time offer.  Get yours today!  : )
Here's the Link:
I'm actually not sure if Backporch Jugend is male or female.  I'm assuming male, so I said "He uploaded".  If I'm incorrect, someone please let me know.
Thanks Backporch Jugend!  You ROCK!
(Disclaimer:  I'm not really sure how the "RapidShare" download process works. 
It downloads as an "RAR" file.  Is some type of special software needed? 
Maybe our audio/video expert MattP could enlighten us.  Matt?)

I added Backporch Jugend to the "Thread Hall of Fame" with 3 contributions.

The two Helter Skelter audio books... and the "Six Degrees" video!

Thanks Backporch Jugend!

Here's some information on "RAR" files.

I'm not sure if this will help, or make things worse. LOL

But anyway... until Mattp shows up... this is all I've got.

Evidently, it's a compressed file format... such as the Zip or Winzip stuff.
It makes transferring large files (online) faster.

Bottom line folks...
You will have to download software to open (unzip)... or probably more accurately stated... uncompress... these "RAR" files... for listening.

It seems there is plenty of free software programs out there (to open RAR files), if you don't mind downloading one to your computer.

"CNET Download" usually has great free (non-virus) software, for this kind of stuff...

matt here on my other google id
alot of laptops such as apple allready have programs factory installed that will unzip these files so you should check before downloading other software.
winrar and 7-zip are both good free programs you can use to unzip all kinds of files be they rar, zip, flac etc.
once you've downloaded the file right click on it, the program you're using should show up on the drop down menu,it'll ask you what folder you want to put it in.
once you choose a folder click go and you should be all set

Almost 27 hours. Whew! That's a lot of Helter Skelter!!

On the lighter side, I saw on the news where a woman was chosen to serve on a jury, and she went back the next day and said she talked to her pastor and he told her it was a sin to judge someone, so the judge let her off, leaving only 11 jurors.

Damn Sam (slapping forehead) why didn't I think of that???

Gotta love the First Amendment of the Constitution. HA HA HA.

If you've ever had a cat that loves on you, you'll know exactly what this is about. They LOVE to rub!! LOL.

OK, you said to correct you...

Backporch Jugend is female...

Hi Kimchi!!

>>>OK, you said to correct you...

Ooooohhhh, major faux pas.

But, it's forgivable, since avatar names aren't gender-sensitive. HA HA.

http://downloads.phpnuke.org/en/download-item-view-l-n-l-g-g/WINRAR.htm

"WinRAR is an excellent and worldwide recognized program, which was designed especially to attend the needs of the users with regard to the compression and decompression of files. It is compatible with the ZIP, RAR, CAB, and ISOformats , among many others.

WinRAR consists of an entire integration with the Explorer of Windows, which allows you to be able to open or extract files in just a click. Also, this tool is characterized by increasing the speed of the compression and decompression tasks in PCs that work with dual core processors".


The downside, is that it's only a 40 day trial version.
But, it'll extract the files... and after that, you can delete the software from your computer anyway.

There are others...

This is great...thanks! I can listen to this as I work and whatnot - since I can never find time to sit down and read a book. I haven't read this book in several years.

Thanks Backporch and Lynyrd!
