Donald Duck

Okay loyal readers – we’re gonna run a contest of sorts here. We got a toy recently that features several Disney characters, including Donald Duck. The gist of the toy is thusly: one pushes, pulls, or turns a switch and the Disney character pops up from whatever type vehicle it is in. For example, Mickey is down in a train, so each flip of the switch cycles thru 3 sounds. Clear?

Now for the interesting part. We have no idea what Donald Duck is saying. He pops out of a boat and says something quite unintelligbly. I captured that sound for you:

Our best guess (and we know we’re wrong on this) is that Donald says: “Sieg heil!” Now, we’re not sure if Donald is a closet facist, but we’re looking for somebody to come up with something more sensible. Remember, it is most likely boat related.

By the way, the pictures from the tree harvesting are up now.

  1. I’ve received 2 votes so far for “A-hoy” – not sure though since there appears to be an “l” sound in there somewhere.

  2. The Townsend household seconds (or is it thirds and fourths at this point) the vote for “A-hoy” even with the “l” sound.
