Dave Foley of 'News Radio' talks for the animals

Recording ant voice-overs for "A Bug's Life" is one thing, but doing it for "Bug's Life" toys was enough to make even a mild-mannered soul like Dave Foley go a little buggy. "It was a lot more tedious than the movie," says Foley, who lent his voice to Mattel's talking and dancing Flik, and Thinkway Toys' shticky Flik, which does a stand-up routine with the evil Hopper. The worst, though, was the Flik talking alarm clock. "I had to shout out numbers all day long," he says. "'One! Six! 38!' It was nuts." Did he record any secret messages? "No, but by the end of the day, I was ready to just start making the Flik clock curse."
