tawss04 Posted August 10, 2006 Report Share Posted August 10, 2006 The phone rang as I was sitting down to my evening meal, and as I answered it I was greeted with "Is this Karl Brummer"? Not sounding anything like my name, I asked who is calling. The telemarketer said he was with The Rubber Band Powered Freezer Company or something like that. Then I asked him if he knew Karl personally and why was he calling this number. I then said off to the side, "get some pictures of the body at various angles and the blood smears", I then turned back to the phone and advised the caller that he had entered a murder scene and must stay on the line because we had already traced this call and he would be receiving a summons to testify in this murder case. I questioned the caller at great length as to his name, address, phone number at home, at work, who he worked for, how he knew the dead guy and could he prove where he had been about one hour before he made this call. The telemarketer was getting very concerned and his answers were given in a shaky voice. I then told him we had located his position and the police were entering the building to take him into custody, at that point I heard the phone fall and the scurrying of his running away. My wife asked me as I returned to our table why I had tears streaming down my face and so help me, I couldn't tell her for about fifteen minutes. My meal was cold, but it was the best meal in a long, long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SSleepingbeauty Posted August 11, 2006 Report Share Posted August 11, 2006 That's pretty good. I wonder if he quit his job? And got the heck out of there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texas_Veteran Posted August 11, 2006 Report Share Posted August 11, 2006 Thats a good one! I love messing with telemarketers when they call me. Another joke for my inventory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zippy Posted August 11, 2006 Report Share Posted August 11, 2006 That is damn funny. I used to enjoy them when I had a land line. I once kept a New York Times telemarketer on the phone for 45 minutes and didn't end up buying anything. They are a blast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kim Posted August 14, 2006 Report Share Posted August 14, 2006 That's awesome It's too bad we're on the no call list Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
backinblack Posted August 14, 2006 Report Share Posted August 14, 2006 I like to tell them I'm busy right now and then ask them for their home number so I can call them back later. Of course they won't give it to me so I say "What you don't want to be bothered at home either?" I've actually gotten a few calls on my cell lately, and it's on the DNC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
