Yesterday, I was listening to some old "saved" voicemails for our general weather phone line. One of the wierdest messages was from March 12 of 2005.

"Yes, I have a problem with being told what the h*ll to do. If you suggest that someone go to [take] cover, that's better than telling them to do it, because you're treading on my Constitutional right for freedom. You don't have the authority to tell [me] what to do. <click>"

I don't know if he ended the call on his own volition -- or if a black helicopter landed on his roof, and mysterious, armed men took him away.

Great stuff! No wonder it was saved...one for the archives, for sure! Ha ha. I'm wondering if, when situations like that happens and they're told to take cover, if they debate the television set about their freedoms until the next commercial break...

:D

SFW - how funny! Reminds me when I worked in Reno in the 90s and voicemail was still a relatively new technology. A curmudgeonly fellow got the voicemail greeting of the GM one day. After the beep, all you heard was a heavy exhale ... then the guy said in a rough, smoker's voice, "GD computers!" and promptly hung up.

That one made the rounds in the building, to great laughter. =)
