This is the second telemarketing call I’ve received in the past few weeks, and the second call from the Calgary Herald’s phone centre since I came on air.

It had been awhile since I’d received a telemarketers call on the show, and then we got this one. Basically I answered the phone and a computer recording told me I’d won a cruise, and if I wanted to claim it, press 9. I did, and this is what I got:

First my boss bought a Wii ”for his kids.” Lynch played it once, and had to have his own. Well, thankfully for Lynch, he doesn’t have to fret missing True Fitness workouts, as he can get the benefits at home!

The Calgary Herald still owes me $2.50! There’s a newspaper box at 9th and 17th beside Nellie’s that took my money, but wouldn’t open up. I called the first time when it took my buck, and they said they’d mail it. That was a few months ago. Where’s my damn dollar!!! The next time it happened, I didn’t do anything, except grumble to myself…it was a weekend paper!

A telemarketer for the Herald called the station, and this is what happened:

This is the un-edited version of a call I received asking me about smoking.

I don’t actually smoke, and hopefull I’ll be around a bit longer than 6 months.
