    My hubby sent some door-to-door AT&T kids packing this afternoon. He was sitting in the carport, after mowing the lawn, & these 2 dweebs in lovely orange shirts came by. I paraphrase. “Good afternoon, Sir, are you an AT&T customer?”

    “Nope.”

    “Could we…?”

    “I think you could get off my property, I will have NOTHING to do with AT&T. Now, just git!”

    They left. He says next time he’ll sit ’em down & explain what his reasons for the boycott are. In case you don’t know, it’s their treatment of military members & their families in the past, completely obnoxious behavior about late payments & adding extra fees, double billing, cursing & threatening spouses & children on the phone…it was a nightmare for many of his Sailors & he won’t have a thing to do with ’em.

    The poor Mormons just want you to be Saved!

    I second the suckage of AT&T. I briefly had a cell phone account with them and two years later nearly ended up going through the phone to strangle a collection agent who was really rude.

    Re the Mormons: oh, I was polite to them. I don’t have anything against religious proselytizers, as long as they get the “no thanks” message.

    My mother, a devout Seventh-Day Adventist, was/is always prepared for the Mormons and Jehovah’s Witnesses: she’d offer to accept the pamphlets they were handing out if they’d accept hers. The ploy worked, as they mostly passed up our house after a few times. On the other hand, two Mormon brothers she’d met that way eventually became Adventists. This was at least 35 years ago, but they still exchange Chistmas cards, as far as I know.

    Nobody better interupt me while I’m watching The First 48. Reruns included.
