When you pick up the phone, just say “Thank you for calling, you’re on the air…..”

Did you forget the pic of her and Gerard? Lovely woman.

As for spam:

I sort of regret going all video and dropping my land line. I really enjoyed messing with audio spam callers. I had two tactics; string them along by shifting my voice to sound quite elderly then crack up, and dropping into mimicking whatever accent they had to piss them off.

Major goal being to make them lose it. Not every time, but often enough to keep me entertained.

See here:

Apparently actual astronomical observations are inconsistent with the tenets of the Big Bang theory, so it’s looking like a new explanation of the universe’s beginning is needed.

What a novel thought ! – a scientific theory has to be in accord with what is actually observed and/or measured.

The media focus is on a supposed big bonanza to come, but isn’t this what one has come to expect from government? More here.
