Got the weirdest phone solicitation of my life Saturday morning.I’m not on any Do Not Call lists, against my principles, but I only occasionally get the stock “important message about your mortgage”…

Alright, it just happened again, this time from the other Vegas area code. After two “hello"s worth of dead air the autodialer patched in the guy who was clearly in a room full of chatter so I’m guessing a) they’re using call centers b) that are too cheap to use headsets or noise-canceling. Either that or they’re calling straight from a casino floor or OTB parlor or something.

Still impressively upbeat and charismatic for phone spam, though. ("Hey, this is Greg from I Forget Sports, you still bettin’ the games, right?”)
