I've been sick 


"Facts do not cease to exist because they are ignored."-- Aldous Huxley

As the prostitute said, "It's not the work, it's the stairs." As told to me by Elaine Stritch, star of stage, screen, & TV, right after she won her 1st Emmy. Ago 79.

Yeah, and it maybe a couple of more days before I can get it together too.
While you wait,
Look at this, on the world's smallest hard drive

Fighting Back 


"Facts do not cease to exist because they are ignored."-- Aldous Huxley

As the prostitute said, "It's not the work, it's the stairs." As told to me by Elaine Stritch, star of stage, screen, & TV, right after she won her 1st Emmy. Ago 79.

THREE LITTLE WORDS..
>I suppose some degree of commerce would grind to a halt if telephone
>solicitors weren't able to call people at home during dinner hour. But
>that doesn't make it any more pleasant.
>
>Now Steve Rubenstein, a writer for the San Francisco Chronicle, has
>proposed "Three Little Words" based on his brief experience in a
>telemarketing operation that would stop the nuisance for all time. The
>three little words are "Hold On, Please."
>Saying this while putting down your phone and walking off instead of
>hanging up immediately would make each telemarketing call so time-consuming
>that boiler rooms would grind to a halt. When you eventually hear the
>phone company's beep-beep-beep tone, you know it's time to go back and
>hang up your handset, which has efficiently completed its task. This might
>be one of those articles you'll want to e-mail to your friends.
>Three little words that eliminate telephone soliciting.
>
>OTHER GOOD IDEAS:
>
>When you get ads in your phone or utility bill, include them with the
>payment - let the companies throw them away.
>
>When you get those pre approved letters in the mail for everything from
>credit cards to 2nd mortgages and junk like that, most of them come with
>postage paid return envelopes, right? Well, why not get rid of some of
>your other junk mail and put it in these cool little envelopes!
>
>Send an ad for your local chimney cleaner to American Express. Send the
>pizza coupon to Citibank.
>
>If you didn't get anything else that day, then just send them their own
>application back! If you want to remain anonymous,
>make sure your name isn't on anything you send them. You can send the
>postage paid envelope back empty if you want to, just to keep them
>guessing!
>
>Eventually, the banks and credit card companies will begin getting their
>junk back in the mail. Let's let them know what it's like to get junk
>mail, and the best part of it is that they're paying for it! Twice!
>
>Let's help keep our postal service busy since they say e-mail is cutting
>into their business, and that's why they need to increase postage again!
>
>Send this to a friend or two or three...or fifty....
