Phone messages

So I got a celll the other day and I want a good voicemail message, but being ill and all I am having a hard time coming up with one. Any suggestions would be wlecome. I don't like my messages to be boring, but this is a little different than a regular answering machine, so I am not sure where to start. Thanks :P

I can't answer the phone right now because I'm down in the basement printing up a fresh new batch of twenty dollar bills. If you need any money, or if you just want to check out my handiwork, please leave your name, number, and how much cash you need after the tone. If you're from the Department of the Treasury, please ignore this message.

A is for academics, B is for beer. One of those reasons is why i'm not here. So leave a message.

hahaha..... i just changed mine tonight. Have you ever heard the song "Banana Phone?" HAHAHA it's a classic. i have that playing when my voicemail starts.

i'd put the cartoon on here, but there's some not-so-nice language. here's the song minus the cartoon!!
BaNaNa PhOnE!!!

basically, my voicemail starts off going "ring ring ring ring ring ring ring, banana phone!" hehehe... stupid song, but so darn catchy.

" Howdy ya'll, we aren't here right now, were either sleeping, or on the toilet right now, so if you'd be so kind to leave us a message. Ya'll call back now, ya here?!"

My neighbor uses that one ^

"Hello, we are avoiding your calls right now. THere is no need to leave a message, as it will not be returned. "

That ones funny^

lead4urhead, i would use your first one, only I don't think it would be a good idea considering my job at the moment, I might use that secind one though. My dad used to have one that listed all the words the NSA would listen for in phone conversations one after another and then say, thought you would enjoy that guys, now go change your soiled pants, everyone else, now that they have gone away please feel free to leave you message. It was pretty funny, but now it is likely to get him in trouble so he won't do fun stiff like that anymore :(

lol Some of these are really funny. Sorry, I have no suggestions, I have a very boring message on my phone. I'm too shy to put anything funny on it. Oh well. :P

make a some shooting noises then say "missed ya"

Sorry I'm not home I'm down walking in the Spiderwebs so leave a message and I'll call you back. A likely story, but leave a message and I'll call you back!

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.
