Answering Machine Messages

During a break at a business meeting today, I overheard a woman talking about the message her teenage son and all his friends have on their answering machines...a song sung to the tune of Greatest American Hero (Believe It Or Not). She was baffled, because the kids were too young to remember that series. Of course I knew they were just trying to be like George. (what a role-model)

My question for you, fellow posters, is: Does the outgoing message on your anwering machine tell the world of your devotion to all things Seinfeld? What does it say? What have the responses been?

used on Thursday nights that said basically that I am watching Seinfeld and can't come to the phone. Nobody ever heard this message, because people were apparently smart enough to never call during Seinfeld.

This I find hard to believe.

Ironically enough, I have thought of just putting on my machine "Vandelay Industries, latex specialist, leave your message after the beep," but it would probably confuse my in-laws.

it cannot possibly compare to their confusion when their lovely daughter brought home something called "TOETOD".

I CALLED A FRIEND THE OTHER DAY AND THEIR MESSAGE SIMPLY SAID, IN A LOUD, FRIENDLY VOICE, (JUST LIKE UNCLE LEO'S): "HELLLLLLOOOOOO!! Leave a message." Beeep
