I get the calls where it is a machine recording.

Better than someone who can't pronounce my name I guess. [&:] And easier to hang up on.

Put your numbers on the national 'Do not call' registry.

donotcall.gov or donotcall.org or something like that. That will cease overnight. And if you do get the odd telemarketer and they ask "How are you today Mr. Fastback?", I reply "I'm on the national Do Not Call List, How are you?" and that ends it.

There is something like a 10000 fine if they call someone on that list so that law has teeth.

That has been one of the only decent pieces of legislation that has come out of D.C. in a long time.

I always tell them that I'm taking a $hit and that I will not be able to share my time with them or I have my dick in my wife's mouth and I'll have to call you back. Or that my ass itches and that I am owned and forced to live by my finger.

I have got 4 in the last 20 minutes at my office. Freakin aggrivating.
