I can't come to the phone now because alien beings are eating my brain.
Leave a message anyway, and after the alien beings assume my shape, one of
them will get back to you.
-----------
I can't come to the phone now because I have amnesia and I feel stupid
talking to people I don't remember. I'd appreciate it if you could help me out
by leaving my name and telling me something about myself. Thanks.

Thank you for calling the CSU Automated Hearing Test Line. Prepare for
Test 1. Is this tone louder in your left ear or right ear? 2. ... BEEP (Rod
Sterling imitation:) You're dazed, bewildered, trapped in a world without time,
where sound collides with color and shadows explode. You see a signpost up
ahead-this is no ordinary telephone answering device... 3. You have reached,
"The Twilight Phone". Thank you for calling 434-2322. If you wish to speak
to Tim, push 1 on your touch tone phone now. If you wish to speak to Lynn,
push 2 on your touch tone phone now. If you have a wrong number, push 3
on your touch tone phone now. All of this button pushing doesn't do anything,
but it is a good way to work off anger, and it makes us feel like we have a big
time phone system.
-----------
This is a test. This is a test of the Answering Machine Broadcast System. This
is only a test.
-----------
I can't come to the phone now, so if, well, actually, I CAN come to the phone
now, I mean, like, I'm at the phone NOW, ecording this message, but I'm
doing this NOW, while you're listening to it LATER, except for you I guess
it's NOW, like, when you're listening to it... I mean, like, wait, gosh. This is so
confusing.
-----------
The number you have reached, 226-0477, has been changed. The new
number is 226-0477. Please make a note of it.
-----------
You have reached the CPX-2000 Voice Blackmail System. Your voice
patterns are now being digitally encoded and stored for later use. Once this is
done, our computers will be able to use the sound of YOUR voice for literally
thousands of illegal and immoral purposes. There is no charge for this initial
consultation. However our staff of professional extortionists will contact you in
the near future to further explain the benefits of our service, and to arrange for
your schedule of payment. Remember to speak clearly at the sound of the
tone. Thank you.

So leave a message.

Hi. This is John. If you are the phone company, I already sent the money. If
you are my parents, please send money. If you are my financial aid institution,
you didn't lend me enough money. If you are my friends, you owe me money.
If you are a female, don't worry, I have plenty of money.

(Narrator's voice:) There Dale sits, reading a magazine. Suddenly the
telephone rings! The bathroom explodes into a veritable maelstrom of toilet
paper, with Dale in the middle of it, his arms wind milling at incredible speeds!
Will he make it in time? Alas no, his valiant effort is in vain.
-----------
The bell hath sounded. Thou must leave a message.

Hi. I'm probably home, I'm just avoiding someone I don't like. Leave me a
