being nice to telephone solicitors

My major gripe, and about the only one, is the almost daily annoying 
"emergency alert system test" thing that pops up screeching in the middle of 
whatever I'm watching. Why can't they do this at 3:00 a.m. instead of 9:15 
p.m.?

Well, never mind. I was up till 5:00 a.m. yesterday -- acttually today -- 
watching "The Sopranos" reruns on A&E, and other stuff, so it still would 
have irritated me. But it's supposed to be a weekly thing, and they seem to 
do it daily.

As for the phone calls, I just told them to quit %(*#@%& calling me, and 
they did. I've stopped being nice to telephone solicitors, and I have a 
fierce and colorful vocabulary, which I have little hesitation to employ.
