I'm gonna do a little bragging about my 18 year old daughter, Miranda. If you ever watch Craig Ferguson and the Late Late Show on CBS, since May 8 Miranda has been featured on the show.
She has been able to do a very realistic horse neigh since the 2nd grade, made a little money a couple of years ago doing all of the realistic horse sounds for DIC Entertainment's Horseland on Saturday mornings CBS. Well since Miranda and I have been going to tapings of his show, I've been thinking Craig might want to use her neigh for his soundbox, since he loves animal sounds, etc. I finally got the opportunity to tell Craig about it when we were audience members on May 8.
Craig LOVED it. She was very cute and poised, because Miranda is also a ham and loves the stage. She got paid for the video clips which showed that night and the following night, and thanks to her brother are now on youtube (see below).
So then the Craig Ferguson producers asked her to come back in the following day to do an audio recording for pay, and since the next Monday, they have featured her neigh at the very end of the show, during the "Worldwide Pants" bit.

We're blown away! And she's already gotten her checks and is having fun spending the money. She'll also use it to participate in the Renaissance Faire she loves being a part of since last year, where she gets to perform in period costume as a monger (wandering street seller) of various food items.
