A Telemarketer's Nightmare

My assistant, Zen Buddhist, works only part time for me. Her primary job is as a telemarketer. Her son sent her this snippet last night and we laughed ourselves sick!

So, although there is interesting news everywhere (such as Kerry's major SNAFU in California yesterday), let's take a break and listen in on the ultimate telemarketer's nightmare call...

Back in the day, I wish I had thought of something like that. But with the Do Not Call list, which is the greatest thing on earth, the only ones I get are automated political ones.

Classic. Excellent idea that guy had.

That Dude has great self-control and more time than I have.

Since I've mellowed, I don't tell them that I'm going to hunt them down and chop them up with my machete.

It wouldn't play for me. Darn!

That is too funny. Unfortunately, all of my cold calls come from off-shore (India, I think). I'm thinking they wouldn't take the bait.

For those of you who couldn't hear the clip:

It's an mp3 recording of an unfortunate telemarketer who calls a professional comedian (Bob). Bob answers, and then starts calling out to his "crew" to start photographing the body.

He then implies to the telemarketer that he may be a suspect, and tells him that if he gets off the phone he'll be charged with obstruction of justice. He starts hitting him with questions and the guy's freaking out.

In the end he suddenly confesses to him that Bob was a "flaming homosexual" and asks the guy if they were lovers. The guy hangs up in a panic and the phone call ends.

That was flippin' hilarious. How did he not just bust a gut when the guy started wiggin' out?
