My honey just got called by Laura Bush

[lil-petunia]

Silence,
Hello? Hello? Hello?
(just ready to hang up when, . . .)

"Hi, this is Laura Bush. I know that you and other loyal republicans are patriots. The most patriotic step ewe can take is to vote for my husband, George W. Bush."

Honey was laughing so loud that it almost woke me out of the Purdue Northwestern stupor. (the good guys are down 10-7)

Now after donating more money than I could afford to Mr. Kerry and several local candidates, including Mr. Obama, how the hell did I get on their list? (my honey is not a US citizen, therefore, cannot vote, even if this is chicago.)

4. The STepford6-9000 Number Should Have Been A Tip Off

Someone needs to collect the best of these phone bank messages.

Hehehe...I'll bet Jesse White sold your name or your bank...seems they've been very busy making money from their databanks this election year.

In 2002, my mother was in a nursing home in Niles...I had a phone installed with an answering machine. I came in election day and the machine had filled with messages, including a couple from Bill Clinton.

Are the Wildcats winning? No...it couldn't be happening again.

Cheers!

5. 13-10, they won in the last 44 seconds, then held boilermakers off

Let's see now.

Boston wins
NU wins
Kerry wins
Obama wins


hey, this is looking good!

6. STepford6-9000...TOO FUNNY!

When you get one of those calls from the Shrubery, does it come up CHimperor2-0666?

(Sorry I am a geek. I like using telephone EXchange names. My old answering machine used to announce my number as UNiversity5-XXXX)

7. Can't even dial the correct numbers automatically.
