HELLO, MAY I TALK TO MR. ADKINS? CLICK.
As if you needed another reason to be pissed.
They managed to slip one more in- just in time for 2005! Your CEL PHONE NUMBER will, in a few short weeks, end up in the grubby hands of joe telemarketer.
Throw that sucker on the do not call list now.
Thanks Jason from Warped Thoughts.
Update: John just alerted me to this MSNBC claim that the story was bogus and that it emerged as an urban myth via email.
Someone ought to tell the Jacksonville CBS affiliate.

Even though it hasn’t completely worked yet, my strategy for stopping telemarketers from calling me is to deeply offend each one individually by relentlessly insulting their core values and beliefs. But then again I don’t have a cell phone, so I’m not concerned with wasting minutes. It’s pretty obvious from my blog and my comments that my time has no value whatsoever.

Sorry to ruin your parade but that is strictly myth. Take a look at msnbc.com. They have an article verifiying my claim.

Intersting that MSNBC says it’s a myth when I saw a story on it on The Today Show about it, though they did say you could do the same opt-out as your land line. I think it was on Friday.
