I Laughed, I cried and it's still going.

In case any of my regular visitors have not noticed, the stuck up europeans (notice it's not capitalized) have been saying so many bad and what I thought were untrue things about Americans. Well, sad to say we are proving them right. Yes you my fine American brothers and sisters. I recall the words of that famous American who said, give us your poor, your weak your ... phone numbers????

Yes!, you heard right. Americans are flocking to Muddysmind.com to give me their Phone Numbers!

Why?

Well it's simple really. I posted a little blurb about the new donotcall.gov web site and linked directly to it for my readers convenience. However some mindless twit decided it would be a great idea to NOT read what I wrote and asked me to remove his phone number from telemarketers lists.

How can I do that?

Good question.

Now that one phone number has turned into 30 or even 40 by now. I'm amazed at the insight the europeans had. I must know capitulate (learned that from the french) and admit we're dumb.

I'm thinking of selling these wonderful new phone numbers I did not ask for and make a little cash to help keep this site running.

What do you think I should do with them?

Call them and tell them how stupid they are to post their name and numbers right on the website! You got another on about 45 min after you posted this. Unreal.

I'm almost at a loss for words now.. we've gone over 50 folks that have for reasons I'm unable to grasp left their phone numbers here?!?!?!?

That is some seriously funny stuff. Some of them even entered their email addresses. And they all want to be removed from the list? Removed from the do not call list? Oh man...these people must just be mindless sheep. Did you count how many AOL and webtv users are on there?

I am dying!! That list of people is one of the funniest things I have seen in a while. Muddy, please realize that it would be people from ANY country doing this though - not just Americans.
I wonder how long it will keep going on...

Earlier in the week NPR reported 10 million people in 4 days averaging 185 people a second.
