What's that sound?

Got a new toy yesterday to help in movie production, a Fostex FR-2 field recorder, along with the usual handful of candy (or, "CANDY!" according to my schnookums, who sometimes acts much younger than she looks). Haven't managed to find an eight-battery charger yet, so for now I'm limited to what's within reach of the power cord, but I hope to rectify that shortly. I could probably have made do with purchased sounds and whatever I could haul into the basement to record, but this should enable me to work with a much wider array of audio. It will also prevent the feeling that I'm pissing away money on sound library fees, which can quickly add up. So if you see me wandering around town pointing a mic at stuff, just be quiet and wave hello.
