I'm going to put weird names on my magazine subscriptions & warr. registration cards!

[BarryHom]

Why am I doing this? I want to confuse telemarketers!

For some magazines, I'm putting a dog's name on it -- "Spot Hom." Then the telemarketer will ask to speak to Spot. I'll say, "You want to talk to my dog? OK, here he is..." Then I will make barking sounds.

For others, I will put Harry Butts and Amanda Hugnkis. Then they will ask, "Can I speak to Harry Butts?" I'll say, "Who?" They'll say, "I like Harry Butts!" or "I'd like Amanda Hugnkis."

I can even write down hard to pronounce names, like Ishahakaballiaka Grambonzinaza. That will be fun.

I can mess with their heads! Hahahahaha!

LOL! I bet you get a lot of telemarketers calling you Barry Home, doncha.

ROTFLOL! Barry your a hoot! I like the really hard to pronounce name and then you can say "WHO?" "WHO?"

How about Notele Markeeter(No telemarketer) or Imma knotta Homie(I am not home) or Isa Itafrea(is it free) or Doknot Callagin(do not call again)

I think telemarketers would prefer the name Amanda.

My brother worked at a gas station, and his name tag read "Juan Aleve."
