Re: Telemarketing on Sunday



Or the famous Seinfeld reply....

"Well, I'm busy right now...but if you wanna give me YOUR home number...I'll
be glad to call YOU tonight while you are having dinner with your
family...and discuss it with you then....."

"Oh, what's this?  Oh, You wouldn't want ME calling you at home while you're
having dinner...???""
