The “no-call” list is for commercial enterprises only, so, like everyone, I still get a fair number of solicitation calls from nonprofits, lobbying groups, and the like.
Most of these, it’s clear why they – literally and figuratively – have my number: my two alma maters, NOW, the ACLU, Planned Parenthood, the Sierra Club, Democratic candidates for public office, etc.
Just got a call asking for me by name.
“May I ask who’s calling?”
“So-and-so for the NRA.”
:eek:
“The National Rifle Association?”
:eek::eek:
“Yes ma’am”
:eek::eek::eek:
“Thanks, but I’m a Quaker – I’m pretty sure we don’t have anything of interest to say to each other.”
:eek::eek::eek::eek:
That was just plain weird.
Wonder if some prankster gave them my number?
