ANSWERING MACHINE MESSAGES

1.
A is for academics, B is for beer.
One of those reasons
Is why we're not here.
So, leave a message.

2.
Hi!
This is John:
If you are the phone company, I already sent the money.
If you are my parents, please send money.
If you are my financial aid institution, you didn't lend me enough money.
If you are my friends, you owe me money.
If you are a female, don't worry, I have plenty of money.

3.
Hi!
Now you say something.

4.
Hi!
I'm not home right now, but my answering machine is.
So, you can talk to it instead.
Wait for the beep.

5.
Hi!
John's answering machine is broken.
This is his refrigerator.
Please speak very slowly,
&
I'll stick your message to myself with one of these magnets.

6.
Hello!
You are talking to a machine.
I am capable of receiving messages.
My owners do not need siding, windows or a hot tub, and their carpets are clean.
They give to charity through their office and do not need their picture taken.
If you're still with me,
Leave your name and number and they will get back to you.

7.
This is not an answering machine-this is a telepathic thought-recording device.
After the tone,
Think about your name, your number and your reason for calling,
&
I'll think about returning your call.

8.
Hi!
I'm probably home,
I'm just avoiding someone I don't like.
Leave me a message, and if I don't call back, it's you.

9.
H!,
This is George.
I'm sorry I can't answer the phone right now.
Leave a message and then wait by your phone until I call you back.

10.
If you are a burglar,
Then we're probably at home cleaning our weapons right now and can't
come to the phone.
Otherwise, we probably aren't home and it's safe to leave a message.

11.
Please leave a message.
However, you have the right to remain silent.
Everything you say can and will be recorded and will be used by us.
