Occasionally, I'll inadvertently answer one of those scam phone calls. Once I realize the caller is someone with whom I don't want to talk, here's what I do:

• Ask them to hold on
• Walk over to the stereo
• Push "start" on the record player
• Put the phone up to the speaker

Depending on which record is on the turntable, it can be hilarious.

I would have "What's New Pussycat" by Tom Jones, on standby for moments like this!
