This goes along with the below post. Now, on youtube, theres this dialog of this guy getting revenge on a telemarketer. Stupid and not at all related to tractors, but dont bash me, bash the guy complaining about junk mail.Goes something like this:
M=man T= Telematketer

M-Hello?
T-Yes, Im calling........
M-Who are you looking for?
M-Roll the body over! Get good pictures
T-Im looking for Tim Hopkins
M-Get the blood on the curtins-oh, umm, you see, mr. Hopkins is no longer with us. He was murdered roughtly 48 hours ago. What is your buisness with him?
T=Well, I was calling for my job, we sell.....
M-We may need you to come down to the station and ask you some questions
T-Let me talk to my supervisor.....
M-How did you know Mr. Hopkins
T-SIr, this is comepletely random number, I dont know Mr. Hopkins.

This goes on for about 5 minuites untill:

M-well you see (looses it and laughts histaricially)

T- OH YOU %^$&*&% $%^$%&^*& Im trying to hold a job and I get this @#%$#%. YOu #$%#%^^% %$^&%^

And then he slams down the phone.......

I picked up on one from "Jerry Seinfield show" and have used it several times when a particulart Telemarketer continues to call. It goes something like this. "Hello" This is he. Well I am busy right now but if you will give me your Home Phone Number I will get back to you right away.Oh, You don't want any one calling you at "Home". Well, now you know how I feel.Bang. End of Story.

A guy, Tom Mabe I think, has a CD he made of prank calls like that. It is pretty funny.

When they call my MIL she starts telling them about her problems such as arthritus and lombego and any ailments she can think of. Lots of them have hung up on her. I tell them I am interested in anything they have if they can wait on there money for 2 or 3 months at a time and they tell me they are sorry to have bothered me.

I'm lucky. My cordless phone plays a little tune at the caller when I hit the silent/secrecy button. "Oh yes, I'm very interested... Just excuse me for a moment..." Hit silent and leave them to it.
I can usually hang up after a minute or two, although I did get an indian guy on once who lasted about 10 minutes before hanging up.
Cheers, JV.

Guy from some long-distance phone outfit called once, and I (in my best Norwegian accent) told him ve vere really interested, etc., etc., but I'd have to run down to the pumphouse and get Uncle Torvald, because he makes all dose dessissions. The guy must have bought it, because he was trying not to offend me but he obviously didn't have time to wait for Torvald.

Ya messed it up a bit junior. It is a piece by the comedian Tom Mabe. All his work is great. Just search for him on YouTube.
