Sorry Gotta Go
Work. screenshotFamily. Filthy Rich: Cattle Drive. Don't you have enough things eating into your precious Web time without the damn phone ringing every few minutes? Well, now the Web fights back with these handy little "sound bytes," providing a medley of perfect excuses for cutting off unwanted conversation. Yes, such classics as "There's the doorbell," "My other line is ringing," and "I can't hear you over the crowd noise" will have you thrilling to a peaceful dial tone in no time. For hard-to-get-rid-of callers like bill collectors, bosses, and mothers, try the fire drill or police siren. There's even a little something for those in rural areas. For the most egregious phone offenders -- telemarketers -- try "I'm listening," replete with lots of "hmmms," "um hmms," and even a "That is really interesting, tell me that again." Wanna know more? Sorry, gotta go. (in Audio Clips)
