Add a module that allows the admin to transfer audio files to the zombie. The zombie will then use a Java applet to play the file using the zombie sound output.

The (Admin UI) AUI will provide a text box to type in. When the enter key is pressed or the send button clicked the admin entered text will be sent to the zombie to be spoken. After an Enter/Send the text within the text box will be highlighted but not deleted. This is so the admin entering the text can either continue typing (effectively deleting the text) or edit the existing text.

The text will be input into a text-to-speech ruby library which produces a sound file. This file will be sent to the zombie and played.

The default text will be 'beef me up scotty'
