I'm soo mad! I was fixing chili downstairs..we have a raised ranch and my kitchen

and dining area are downstairs...14 stairs to be exact 7 up, landing and 7 more up. The phone rang while I was down there, so I turned of my chili cause I didn't know how long I'd be, and ran up the stairs (mind you I'm 70 now..not easy anymore).

Got to the phone and it was a lying republican robocall saying something about the 761 million/or billion that Obama wasted.
Hung up on it, went back downstairs to chop up more celery for the soup and cut my thumb...then I was really mad!!!

sleeping at 9 when I get robo-called. I live in Upstate New York, why is Mike Huckabee calling to tell me about his bud Todd Aiken?!?!

off of my truck today between the hours of 2 pm and 4 pm. The bastages think that hurt, but it only pissed me off. They can't steal my vote (even though I do live in Florida)

It was the round magnet saying "Obama 2012" and it covered the "O" in ChevrOlet perfectly.

Hopefully your ire spiced up the chili.

I've pretty much stopped answering my phone this election season. If it's a real person, they'll leave a message.

Son of a bitch. I will hunt that fucker down if it takes a loooooooooooooong time. And to top it off some bastard in a BMW called me a retard for my Obama bumper stickers. I cussed the coward for three fucking blocks. He must have called his drunk girl friend in the black range rover to rear end me. And my poor little dog had to have two teeth pulled today. Had to get him from the vet or I would have chased that bitch to the end of the earth. What a fucking day egh?

I have ONE answering machine/main unit with phone in one room. The phone came with several satellites. The satellite phones are just hte same cordless phones EXCEPT they have little bases that just plug into a regular wall socket. You can put them anywhere. They're great!

I have the main unit in one room, a satellite in the den, a satellite in the kitchen, and a satellite in the dog/computer room.

Then there are cell phones.
