The ultimate compliment…..

There is no way to describe the feeling you get when you see that someone has covered one of your songs…. I am so flattered and honored.  What a great job this guy did, especially on the falsetto part… Thanks Austin Criswell, you have brightened a cloudy week.

How to keep (202) 443-8969 from repeatedly calling you

Call-Center-Home-Make-MoneyOver the past week I’ve been getting calls from the telephone number 202-443-8969 repeatedly at all hours of the day and night.  These calls are obviously from a call center in either India or the Philippines and they are trying to sell me pharmaceuticals.  They call themselves “US Pharmacy”.   The first 3 times they called I requested they remove me from their calling list, when I do this, they simply hang up immediately and call me back again in an hour.  I tried calling the telephone number back (which has a Washington D.C telephone number) but that number is not a valid number as they have simply programmed an erroneous number in their outbound caller ID.

I did a google search for this number and apparently HUNDREDS of people have been getting these same calls… so, I decided to fight back by keeping them on the phone for as long as humanly possible….  I’ve edited this call as it was originally 15 minutes long.
