Phone Menu Voice ,'Conviction (1)'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I think it depends on why I'm calling. If I need to fix a problem, I want to reach a person. But I totally have been all "voice mail, SCORE!" on other less pressing matters.
For me, if I'm just looking for a non-urgent answer, voicemail is awesome, because they can can call back and leave it on my voicemail. Perfect!!
Although I'm making an active effort to get better at picking up the phone and calling people.
My reaction to voice mail is usually "SCORE!"
This is me unless I am calling the boys or DH. But mostly I really don't want you to answer the phone.
Tony Snow:
The executive branch is under no compulsion to testify to Congress, because Congress in fact doesn't have oversight ability.
That's, um, interesting.
That was in a rather heated discussion that Snow had with Harry Smith on CBS: [link]
"It is not reasonable for the government to expect all parents to shoulder the burden to cut off every possible source of adult content for their children, rather than the government's addressing the problem at its source," a government attorney, Peter D. Keisler, argued in a post-trial brief.
And exactly why isn't it reasonable to expect parents to be responsible for their own children? Last time I checked, that was kind of the point of being parents...
See, this is why you can't sell nudie magazines right there at the local newstand. Oh, wait....

He's saying that it's difficult for every parent to catch every single bad thing that might impact their children. So because all parents can't be 100% successful in blocking the bad stuff, we should just get rid of the bad stuff.
Which is silly, IMHO.

The big-government nanny state is WRONG and EEVUL. Except when it's good and noble and thinking of the childrun.

I'll take responsibility for protecting my children from the evil porny internets. Not really interested in the government taking over my job.
Oh my total god, I can't believe I still have to be at work. I am so totally all set right now.
My reaction to voice mail is usually "SCORE!"
Oh, yes, totally. Even for people I like, honestly, I'd mostly rather talk to them through text - e-mail or text message or something.
Congratulations, Allyson! Great news!
I'm pretty sure I haven't gone over 3 years with any one company or job. Two years is my limit for most things - apartments, jobs, school. I get restless and start wanting something different, even if I don't leave right then.
