when i got a call from an association asking me to support their candidate in the upcoming election.

The broken english of the caller made me wonder if these calls had also been outsourced.

oh the irony!
 
OMG those people are so frickin' bad this time around!!!!

I got a call to see Al Sharpton!!!! I can't stand that guy! He just makes me sick!

They are also coming around to make sure i know where to go vote.

Ask if they can put signs in my yard.

You would not believe all the stuff I get in the mail everyday.

I can almost recite a John Kerry ad because I have seen it so many times tonite. It is on at every break!

It isn't so much as who the ad and campaigning stuff is for, but i resent being targetted so heavily because of the area I live in!

They aren't doing this in my Dad and friends neighborhoods! It's ridiculous!

I think we have asked them to take us off their call and mailing lists the last three elections and they never do! I think that this should fall under that do not call registry. We have 3-4 messages everyday! :mad:
 
I get those calls all the time.. what's even worse they all start off speaking Spanish to me... for some reason people in Los Angeles are always mistaking my Italian last name for a Spanish name... I can't even get a word in edgewise... when I finally get out that I don't speak Spanish... they generally stutter and hang up...
 
in light of some of the election issues, the thought of outsourcing the call list just struck me as ironic......and a bit funny

i guess we'll all have more than a few of them the next few days.......i hope my old heart can stand all this fun and excitement

:D

Actually it wasn't covered by the do not call registry, which is exactly why the do not call registry has been tied up in court.
 
I guess there is something to be said for living in the middle of nowhere.

The only call I've gotten was from a highschool classmate thats running for sheriff.

and how is this a bad thing?

Its not a bad thing at all, it allows me the chance to touch someones life and them to touch mine ... oftentimes those strangers leave rainbows behind.

Mr. KS .... you have a pretty cute snickerfit yourself but you outta hear Ms. Emi's ..... the woman had me in tears I was laughing so hard.
 
lets figure out when ... football season is over except for a tournament so Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday are my busy evenings.

And yet, for some insane reason perfectly nice women ignore it when you make your shitty remarks to other women.

Yer a true charmer.





The three younger kids did their drama performance today, as you know emmaroo. Anyways when they got back into the van afterwards, the oldest looked at me and exclaimed, "That was just a campaign thing today!!".
they were told it was to dedicate something but, of course, it quickly turned into a "why you should vote for <insert politicians name>".

He then said, dead serious, "I don't think I'm happy about being used like that". *laughs*
