The last time a telemarketer call my house phone, my son was sitting close by.
When the rep started talking to me(in English), I just started talking in German(my really bad German. You Pullman City folks know how bad my German speaking skills are), .........and my son just started laughing like crazy! My son would like to take German in High School, but it is not offered here in Dyersburg.....although I believe our local community college might offer it. Maybe he and I could take it together. That would be enjoyable to me.
So just start talking in a different language other than your own whenever a telemarketer calls.

Bill, y'all can take language courses on-line and there is a RosettaStone disk course that is very good! You son can also get credit for it if he goes to college...he can do what is called a "clept" [sp] Test.
This site is free http://www.byki.com/fls/FLS_yge4.html?l ... 4165793522

There are so many out there. Eagle and I are going to learn Spanish
I can understand German, My Grandmother spoke nothing but mosy of the time, but I can't write or speak it well. I do speak Poarch Creek and Cherokee
