Above is a link that is probably one of the funniest ways to deal with a telemarketer!The telemarketer is informed he has called a murder scene!

Hmm... I can't find it... says page can not be displayed... methinks that Gremlins be loose on the 'net!!!

I usually don't anwer the phone unless I'm expecting a call... I have caller id, but most of my family has their number blocked, soooo.... I call them

. Unless I'm in a really bad mood & feel like sharing... then I answer if I think it's a telemarketer & have fun! *mwahahahahaha*

None, which should I have been a voting choice. No land line, they are a total waste of money.

Exactly. Fantazmaster missed the whole point when I said I DID NOT NEED and DO NOT MISS having a land line. Gee, so I should continue to pay every month for a worthless piece of equipment and then spend the money on a Telezapper too? And then do all the other tricks, wasting time, when disconnecting it was a piece of cake, and frankly, I don't even notice that I don't have a land line. You can have a good time with all the websites, but I have piece of mind and $40 extra bucks to play with each month.

I know a lot of people who have done the same and completely agree.

I get calls from the National Democratic Committee, which annoys me a bit because of all of the scandal that is faced with our government. When I vote, I want to make an informed decision about the candidates and the amendments that I decide whether I want to pass them or not.

Actually windchymes,your situation was one reason I went to the time and effort to post these devices, as it disturbed me that you could no longer use your land line for dialup connections;.Certainly your decision regarding this landline removal is your business,but if making others aware of the availability of these devices means they can enjoy a disturbance free home life from these unwanted calls,then my whole purpose in posting this info has been fulfilled.

And you can have a disturbance-free home life by just having a cell phone. Don't have to worry about long-distance rates, and you can take it with you. Don't need to bother with an answering machine. I've saved a lot of money that way.
