Holy flashback to sixth grade! lol, forgot about that song. I don't have any message ideas of my own, but I like Brandon's idea. I hate when someone's answering machine is like "Hello? (dead silence for 30 seconds...) I'm not here.....blah blah blah"

My voicemail is one of those typical safe for professional work/interviewers calling me.

My friend's voicemail message is "This is my voicemail. You know what to do."

I like to say "This is an IQ test" and nothing else.
Always get a good second or two of confused silence........

bahahahahaha! I'll have to give that one a try :D

I thought about leaving it simple for professional purposes, then I remembered that I refuse to give that number to my work people. I have a lan line for that. I didn't want the phone in the first place, it has just become very necassary, and I have been fighting it tooth and nail for over a year. I don't like the whole leah feeling. But Ihad to get one, so I may as well have fun with it

It was far cheaper for me to run around with a cell phone that it was for me to own a land line. So I use cable internet, and I don't have a land line. Go free long distance. Plus I've only ever gone over my minutes once, and that was when I was spending several hours arguing with my loan company and the financial aid office trying to figure out what paperwork was getting messed up by them.

My one buddy just says "yep" and then it beeps that's always nice and confusing - if you have friends that can do impresssions try that out I left a great Smeagle (sp?) message on my buddies phone. Or you can always try:

"This is a voice activated self-destruct sequence brought to you by AT&T you have three... two.... one...."

"Thank god you remembered the number... I put the documents in that manilla folder... it's under that park bench on ... (drop phone)"

"This is my phone... if you don't have anything important or humorous to leave, please hang up now."

I do a great Golum voice, I have been doing that voice since I heard the books on tape as a small child. The part in the movie should have been mine, but alas, I was in Japan at the time and found out about it too late. That is a whole other story. I apparently do a really convincing "adult" phone voice that confused one of my friends, who knows my voice very well, so much that he hung up on me thinking he had dialed the wrong number, then hung up again, becuase he thought the number he had dialed must have been changed to a forward system that connected him t a chat line and he thought he was getting charged out the butt. It was really funny, and no one was more surprised at the result than me. I suppose I could do that, but I feel it may invite many unwanted calls. I could give the number to the california rejection line if I can find it.
