If he called you and you actually listened to him, your HMO would pay for your phone call, classifying it as a lobotomy.

The Understatement of the Year So Far...
"New York police have arrested construction worker, John Brady, 49, in a rather odd crime."

I love the first of the "related topics" below: NY Bar Exam Results Statistics. Seems to me they're insinuating that attorneys have a particularly clear view of their own internal digestive system....

Can you rear me now?

"It is unclear why Brady is in construction and not telemarketing."
*snork*

I can't help it but...ROTFLMAO
Key question:
Didnât this guy apprentice with Bernie Madoff?
Posted by: Jeff Meyerson | January 06, 2009 at 06:03 PM
Brady was finally apprehended after a 34-year-old woman became suspicious after giving herself a rectal examination when she realized later that Brady âdid not represent a medical establishment.â She then called police.
After?? After? Maybe we should outlaw phones...or phonebooks at least.

I guess they had nothing better to do while they waitied for the zillions of dollars to roll into their bank accounts from dead Nigerian princes.
My favorite response:
"youâre assuming they werenât just waiting for an excuse"

He should've used his creative marketing skills to sell the Wunder Boner as a rectal exam aid.
Posted by: Alex | January 06, 2009 at 06:18 PM
"o.k. now drop your pants and bend over."
"you're that guy, who makes people give themselves rectal exams!"
"no, sir, this is the i.r.s, just so you're ready..."

whoa?? where did all the posts go???
Posted by: Siouxie | January 06, 2009 at 06:31 PM
LOL insom...like my daughter would say - true dat.
Posted by: Siouxie | January 06, 2009 at 06:34 PM
Sio, they're on the phone.
Posted by: CJrun | January 06, 2009 at 06:38 PM
I've had people tell me to do that on more than one occasion, but it never occurred to me that they might be doctors....
Posted by: Brillo | January 06, 2009 at 06:39 PM
I'm STILL shocked that people would ACTUALLY
A) believe he's a doctor OVER THE PHONE
and
B) do what he says
How do we know for sure that he was successful getting people to do this ? I certainly wouldn't admit to it ! And, the biggest question of all, WHY ???
Posted by: Telecomdropout | January 06, 2009 at 06:48 PM
bwahahahahahaha!!!
Posted by: crossgirl | January 06, 2009 at 06:51 PM
How do they hear the phone ring, with their heads so far up their asses?
Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | January 06, 2009 at 06:54 PM
We're gonna need a bigger probe...
So we lost an hour?? wtf?
Posted by: Siouxie | January 06, 2009 at 06:58 PM
Not sure, Sioux. Maybe the bot needs a rectal exam.
Posted by: Annie Where-but-here | January 06, 2009 at 07:08 PM
Or some fiber.
Posted by: Siouxie | January 06, 2009 at 07:09 PM
Anybody have Dave's phone number?
Posted by: Brillo | January 06, 2009 at 07:14 PM
Whoa, Siouxie - where'd all the posts come from ???
They weren't there when I posted half an hour ago !
Posted by: Telecomdropout | January 06, 2009 at 07:19 PM
"I have always wondered who actually falls for marketing gimmicks on the telephone about free trips and prizes."
Probably those with subject-verb agreement problems.
Posted by: pogo | January 06, 2009 at 07:21 PM
TCom - the bot pulled them out...
Posted by: pogo | January 06, 2009 at 07:22 PM
And there they are.
Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit drugs.
Posted by: Siouxie | January 06, 2009 at 07:24 PM
Same New Year's resolution again this year, Sio? ;-)
Posted by: Just Ducky | January 06, 2009 at 07:31 PM
At least in the office they use KY and rubber gloves. Think of the home test kit.
Posted by: Loudmouth | January 06, 2009 at 07:32 PM
Ducky, it's a yearly struggle ;-P
Loudmouth? latex gloves & baby oil. Not that I'd know anything about that.
Posted by: Siouxie | January 06, 2009 at 07:35 PM
Oh and a hand mixer.
Don't ask.
Posted by: Siouxie | January 06, 2009 at 07:38 PM
Ring...ring. Hi are you over 50. It's important that you get your camera, stick it up your butt and send the picture to ??? Dave Barry for analysis.
Posted by: Loudmouth | January 06, 2009 at 07:40 PM
Siouxie, you should adopt my resolution:
Drink More Wine in 2009!
It's one I just might be able to keep.
Posted by: Just Ducky | January 06, 2009 at 07:48 PM
Siouxie, I'm hoping to get invited to one of your Tupperware parties now.
Posted by: MartiniShark | January 06, 2009 at 07:54 PM
(spouse walks into bedroom) Honey, have you seen the keys? I need to -- (freezes in place for a few moments) Ooooo, sorry. Didn't know you were on the phone with the doctor.
Posted by: MartiniShark | January 06, 2009 at 07:56 PM
Pogo - are you saying the bot answered the phone ???
Posted by: Telecomdropout | January 06, 2009 at 07:57 PM
Rectum?! I nearly killed 'em!
Posted by: Angry Rectal Examiner | January 06, 2009 at 08:09 PM
Hey Ducky ! That was MY resolution too !
Scheduling our yearly trip up to our local wine country to replace all the wine glasses we broke last year for the end of this month. Love to go wine tasting !!!
Posted by: Telecomdropout | January 06, 2009 at 08:10 PM
Ducky, just because I've given up drugs does not mean I've given up my boxed wine. In fact, I have a glass of Merlot-in-a-box as we
typespeak.Sharkie?? Tupperware⢠parties?? uh...yeah sure. Of course they are.
Posted by: Siouxie | January 06, 2009 at 08:41 PM
*snork!* Loudmouth said "analysis".
Posted by: Cat R | January 06, 2009 at 08:45 PM
Smell my finger. This is a test.
Posted by: Loudmouth | January 06, 2009 at 08:47 PM
Good job, Telecom. Wish I could go wine tastin' with you.
Um, Siouxie? Any extra Merlot for a poor, thirsty duck? Please?
*Holds out glass*
Posted by: Just Ducky | January 06, 2009 at 08:48 PM
Some years ago there was a guy calling women in various suburbs of NYC who convinced them that to save their marriage (I believe) it was absolutely necessary for them to go out and have sex with the first man they met, who turned out to be...guess who?
At least he got something tangible out of it. I don't even want to think what this guy is getting.
Posted by: Jeff Meyerson | January 06, 2009 at 08:50 PM
*pours a tall glass of Merlot for the Duckness*
For you?? anytime!
Posted by: Siouxie | January 06, 2009 at 08:51 PM
Siouxie, you are the best! And your Merlot ain't bad, either.

This is bad 'cause... who's going to believe it anymore when your real doctor calls and asks you to give yourself a rectal exam ?
Posted by: Clankazoid | January 06, 2009 at 09:16 PM

I think the question of why a guy wanted his poop in the mail has been answered.
Posted by: Alex | January 06, 2009 at 10:25 PM
OK, raise your hand if you went out and had a colonoscopy at Dave's urging.
Still feeling superior?
Posted by: Meanie the Blue | January 06, 2009 at 10:26 PM

He was only calling people within 25 miles of Mianus.
------------
"Honey, who's on the phone?"
"Ssssh - I can't hear you. I have my finger up my a$$."
------------
The tip off was when he said his office number was HEmorrhoid 6-5000.

Posted by: SW | January 06, 2009 at 11:41 PM
Jeff...there was a guy callin' women saying he was a doctor at the hospital where I work, and then asking them a series of questions about their health, gradually segueing into things like "...and what did you have to take off to have your last vaginal exam?"
I was the on-call admin that week, and was amazed at how many questions they answered before the pervert alarm went off. He turned out to be a med record clerk at another hospital nearby...we tracked him down because he was calling patients with unlisted numbers. Duh.
Posted by: Betsy | January 07, 2009 at 12:21 AM
"...and what did you have to take off to have your last vaginal exam?"
The afternoon?

Now if you're feeling miserable, if you're feeling blue,
Here's a little ditty that'll help to pull you through.
All the clouds will disappear and the grey skies turn to blue,
Just stick your finger in your rear when you hear â« ring-a-ling-a-loo â«.
You stick your finger in your rear when you hear â« ring-a-ling-a-loo â«.
Your finger in your rear when you hear â« ring-a-ling-a-loo â«.
You just follow "doctor's" orders when he tells you what to do
You stick your finger in your rear when you hear â« ring-a-ling-a-loo â«.
*Nite, folks!*

Call me
Lube up your hands, and then

Pull down your pants, and then
Call me
Call me and move it around

'scuse me while I text you my results.

welcome GG.... I see the bot stuck it's finger up your a$$ right away. Congrats !
Posted by: Jazzzz | January 07, 2009 at 07:59 AM
Likewise welcome, GG. Don't let the bot frighten you away - it can be, well, a real @sshole sometimes.
And thank you for holding up a blog tradition.
Posted by: Meanie the Blue | January 07, 2009 at 08:14 AM
Hey there, GG! You have now undergone the official bot initiation. It will continue to victimize you at random intervals, just to keep you humble.
But keep posting...it's all worth it in the end.
So to speak.
