next time you get a call from an unavailable number, try saying things like:
petes crematorium, you kill em we grill em
or marthas mortuary, you stab em we slab em

i find it quite satisfying to mess with these leeches.

Operator: May i please speak to the head of the household?
Me: He left
O: Do you know when he will be back?
M: no i mean he left...he went to alaska for a business trip ::sniff::
and he hasn't been back yet
O:...
M: he was supposed to be back 3 months ago... HE'S SUPPOSED TO BE MY FATHER!!!!
O:umm...
M: have you ever been abandoned? He wasn't a great father to begin with, he always left the toilet seat up and uncapped the toothpaste
O: can i interest you in..
M: NO! No more words! Words are nothing! (familiar, no?:-p)
O: I'm sorry...
M: well i gotta go (off to the side hey dad! when are you leaving to go grocery shopping?
O: ::click::

try it sometime..its quite invigorating

Finally, I let them know that the Gramm Leach Bliley Financial Remodernization Act prohibits them from sharing any of my personal information with any other company, whether affiliated with them or not. This is also an unfairly expansive reading of the law, but they usually leave me alone soon thereafter.

I have followed this pattern for about 1 1/2 years now. Now, I get less than one a night.
Too hard to remember all that. I just pay $5 to verizon to block all calls that Caller ID shows as "Out of Area", it has been 100% for 3 months now, not a single telemarketer has gotten through. [img]smile.gif[/img]
