Mild puzzlement

[jhetley]

We've been screening calls through the answering machine, this political season.  And just got one that has me scratching my head.

Very aggressive, harsh voice.  The message was the basic Obama = terrorist thing, pounding on the Ayers connection.  But the volume and tone of voice weren't professional-actor grade, the "this message authorized and paid" tag was in the same voice/tone, and other things just seemed a bit off and over-the-top.

Almost suspect a Joe Job . . .

Huh. We're getting an insane number of calls from various "Unknown" numbers ourselves, but none of the creeps can be bothered to leave a message. We're never home during the day and we don't watch television...so this was what the world was like before televised debates and attack ads.

A lot of the calls drop after the answering machine comes on, but this one didn't. That's another anomaly.
