I love it when they "out" themselves like that.

Outstanding. Great post.

As much fun as that might be to do...I'm too lazy. I screen all calls through the answering machine. Easier that way.

Thanks, TPD

That IS pretty funny. LOL. And yes, we sure needed a laugh because it's nearly impossible to find one around FR these days.

I liked what my sister did when the light bulb person called with an offer of light bulbs that would last five years.

She told the person that she had ordered a whole case of these particular bulbs last year and for them to please call her back in four years.

I want to say that I heard him on Art Bell one night a few years ago, but I'm not sure.

I might be confusing him with they guy with the wacky 911 calls.

Oh, my. And I thought I was having fun by telling the guy I'm glad he called and trying to sell him a commercial property. I ask for his social security number, net worth, amount of down payment available, etc. Pretty soon, they typically say, "Okay, I get it. I won't call again."

I believe I've heard this guy before, and he's hysterical, but this may have topped it. Normally, if I get a telemarketer, I'll tell them I just got home from work and dinner's on the table. Then, they'll normally offer to call back at a more convenient time. My response is always the same: "Give me your name and home number, and I'll call back sometime tonight to discuss this latest 'offer' with you personally."

Stops them in their tracks everytime...

I can't stop laughing. I nearly had an accident when he asked him if he was his lover.
