Do Not Call List

yeah, i used to dial directory information on pay phones down in florida and ask the operator to get me the phone number of either sonny crockett or rico tubbs in miami when i was with my family waiting to be seated at some early bird restaurant on vacation and old enough to know better.


i also used to take time during my lunch period in junior high school to call random local dj services to see if they would have any problem working a satanic sacrifice.

one time i called alan colmes' radio program on wnbc 660 am to ask him if he preferred peas or corn. another time i rang him up to loudly declare myself "the burger king".

at about that same time, thanks to my connections at the high school radio station, i somehow found myself in possession of the home phone number of heavy metal fringe oddball, the great kat.

(warning: that link up there has sound)

i used to like to call her up and listen to her rant on her answering machine about how she was the world's fastest guitarist and the whole motherfucking world could kiss her ass.

these days i'm not much of a phone person - and i think we're all probably better off for it.
