And continuing with the threadjack, this discussion has given me an inspiration. Next time I get robo-called, I'm going to make note of the number on the CallerID. Then, when someone I buy something from asks me for my number, I'll give them that one. Devil


I love the idea, but I wouldn't go through with it. Telemarketers, and especially robocallers spoof numbers. The Caller ID pretty much never shows their actual number. In fact, they very often choose to display the number of the last person that cheesed them off, which is usually some poor sap that got mad at them for calling. I'd rather not run the risk of targeting an innocent party. Best just to hang up.

If you want to see less ads in general google 127.0.0.1 ad blocking on your computer.

It's fun to note, when I log on to check messages or visit a site, I see ads for audiobooks narrated by me. I wish everyone say the same ads and bought more of my books.

I kinda sold out to the google monster. Not sure how I feel about it. Maybe it will make me more visible to someone looking for my exact sound. Ha!
