Heh. I love phone solicitors. They crack me up. The other night the phone rings - "UNAVAILABLE" the Caller ID display reads. I think to myself, "wahoo, probably someone trying to sell something."

I answer. "Hello?"

"Hi, yes, I'm Mark with MCI Worldcom and I think you'd be interested in our cellular telephone promotion we've got going right now. See, if you sign up for ...."

I let him talk, waiting until he's done.

"...so, what do you think? Should we go ahead and get you signed up for that?"

I say "Well dude, lemme tell you. I really can't talk at the moment. I had a glass of milk earlier without first taking my Lactaid and I'm suffering some frothy diarrhea, let me tell you. Maybe you could call back in an hour or two when I'm off the pot?"

He's like "Uh, yes sir. Thank you for your time" and hangs up.

Never called back.
