Today is a new record for me. Sixty junk mail calls. Alexander Graham Bell would be proud of himself; or maybe turning over in his grave. I really can’t make up my mind which.

At the most, I rarely ever got more than five or six ads on a single day in the postal mail. I don’t ever getting more than ten. Moreover, all I needed to do was toss it in the trash unread.

I am open to reports, people getting more calls than me. Somehow, I wouldn’t at all be surprised if there are reports of over one hundred a day, or maybe even a couple of hours.

I am very seriously considering disconnecting the phone but sometimes I actually need it.

There is, of course, A way to bring it to a stop. Everyone stop paying them any attention. I’m not saying decrease it. I mean stop it. If one call in a thousand works, it won’t stop it. We must totally remove all hope of them succeeding.

Actually, I am not sure that will work

Perhaps what we need is special phone numbers for old people like me. Then put heavy fines on people who call them with junk calls.

It, of course, won’t work. They would find a way, A method to get around it. The fact of the matter is, there are those people, by the thousands, who, without hesitation, irritate others with their junk call. It won’t bother them one iota, regardless of how dishonest those calls are.
