My friend interrupted a meeting yesterday to answer a strange "612" number on his cell phone.... only to get a telemarker from the cell company pushing new "txt msg-ing" packages. Later that night, we used a different phone, called Tony back at his strange "612" number and then hung up when he answered. It's the little things in life.
Earlier today I tested my "verbal cowboy" skills.... I was able to keep a hardened-anti-phone-er on the tele' for 10 min and 41 sec.... pretty close to a wor'd record...
A third friend kept calling my home phone when his cell would cut out. Every time, I waited for the answering machine to answer before I would pick up. I know how much he hates its chorus...
Believe it or not, Steve isn't at home...
Your message is hilarious, although I think you should still have it play the ending song of Monty Python.

Posted by: Carrie at October 27, 2005 03:18 PMSo you're a "verbal cowboy," what skills does that require? What kind of prize do you win for keeping your unwitting victim on the phone for 10 minutes when they could have had something uber important to do.....just curious.
