Yeah, um, Hello?

To whoever keeps calling and calling and calling my phone...the caller i.d. says Blocked Number. Or Private Number. Or No Data. I am not going to answer you. Give up now....or leave a dang message. If it is the paper...no comment. That is all.

well, I was going to leave a message, but didn't think you'd appreciate the heavy breathing.

; )

(actually, it's usually telemarketers, no?)

It wasn't me. V's right, it's telemarketing computer dialing nazis for sure...

k, but the phone just KEEPS ringing....and literally, seconds after this post, the Nanaimo Daily came up on the id...spooky, eh? They are looking for quotes, comments,etc, in a story I don't want to comment on....

Hmm. Maybe (just maybe) it would be a good sounding board if you did respond to the paper? It could do some good (maybe?) It would certainly get your concerns out there. Unless you're afraid that you'll be taken out of context, which newspapers are famous for...

yes, Kingfisher, that is what I am afraid of in this case...that and having them put my name out in an article about something slightly contentious...and whether or not it is something I agree with, I don't want my name in the article in conjunction with this thing ...cuz it's contentious and people/hardcases know where I live...and I have enough to deal with!!

and by slightly, I mean highly.

so you didn't recognise my heavy breathing then?

Victoria said...

ask Telus if there's anything they can do? (probably not...but still)

Or, take a deep breath, pick it up and then breathe heavily at them? ; )

dilling said...

Victoria, if it really IS Four Dinners and I start breathing really heavy....what happens next?

Hey, as Wanda Sykes once said about obscene phonecalls..."people pay a lot of money for this" and you, "could get it for free!"

I never answer unidentifiable cell phone calls. Those calls cost me money and the least people can do is have the courtesy to leave a message.

The telephones explode ;-)
