One of the single most
funniest things I have heard in awhile. What you do:
Dial 1-800-888-3999
Listen. Press 7. Laugh your ass off.
I made my mom listen to it and she accused it of being some kinda pothead joke. Silly mom.
For those of you who are phone impaired or are too lazy to do it the transcript follows:
