-----------------
This is a System 7 sound file of a cup of coffee being poured. In and of itself, it is fairly useless. However, when coupled with the Coffee & Donuts Icon set by Joe Ashear, available online in the Mac Utilities Forum, it makes a great SoundMaster sound for Empty Trash! Use ResEdit to replace your Trash icons with the coffee maker icons (empty coffee maker=empty trash can, coffee maker with coffee in it=full trash can). Then in the SoundMaster Control Panel, select Coffee Pour as the sound for Empty Trash. This of course requires you to have a copy of SoundMaster, but if you don't already, you should. Life just isn't complete without it. The result: when you Trash a file, the coffee maker fills up with coffee. When you empty the Trash, there is a pouring sound and the coffee maker empties. I think it's cute. Remember to always make a copy of any file you modify with ResEdit, just to be safe. Enjoy!
