    I'm itching to change my voice mail greeting, but can't decide which one to use. Help me decide.

    ¤ Married white male seeks name and number of the person calling. Any other details optional. Will respond ASAP.

    ¤ Aah voice mail, the polite way of saying "I don't want to talk to you." Leave a message and I'll call back when the mood strikes.

    ¤ Just as tofu is a poor substitute for meat, so this message is for my answering my phone, but if you will accept this placebo, I will give you the real thing as soon as possible.

    ¤ First you hear a ring, then I hear some people sing. I'm very busy, please don't pout. I couldn't answer, I was out.

    ¤ Seven out of ten voices in my head say I should call you back. The other three wanted me to answer the phone. Sorry, majority rules!

    and finally, since i'm a "super" fan ...

    ¤ Sorry I couldn't take your call. I left my phone in my pants on the floor of the phone booth I was changing in before flying up, up, and away. Leave a message and my mild mannered alter ego will return your call.

    Why does this have to be so difficult? Jeez...just say you can't answer the phone and you'll call me back. Is that so hard? Instead, you have to TRY to be funny, but everyone knows you have a warped sense of humor that doesn't branch outside of the family.
    What were we talking about? Oh yeah. Voice mails. Now I forgot what I read.
