Terrence, there really is no way around reading up on the mbrola stuff. 
Read "mbrola -h" and the webpage. You need a "voice" so that mbrola can 
say something. See the mbrola pages for links to voices. All this is 
not related to mp3 at all.

The basic dataflow is 
1. Transform a textfile into a list of phonemes that
2. mbrola understands and turns into audio data which
3. You can then pick up and do with it whatever
