i played along, then did the same thing again - dropped the phone and
hung up.

this went on for three more times, then finally I said - what are you
doing here - hey, what's the gun for - no no - don't........slammed
the phone on the desk....hung up.

they havne't called back again.

That's a lot of trouble.
Just cut them off at first opportunity and state that you gave at the
office. Hang up before they re-start spiel.

1 - its not as much fun.

2 - im bored,

I was so obnoxious to a solicitor calling at 8:45 pm, that she called back
and told me I was the rudest person she ever talked to. I asked her for her
home number, so I could call in the middle of the night and ask her if she
wanted to buy something. And then hungup. I still consider it a high point
in dealing with junk phone calls. Now if I could just get off the junk fax
list.
