<p><strong><font size="2"></font></strong></p><p><strong><font size="2">REMINDER....12 days from today, all cell phone numbers are being released to <br />telemarketing companies and you will start to receive sale calls. <br /> <br /> ......YOU WILL BE CHARGED FOR THESE CALLS<br /> <br />To prevent this, call the following number from your cell phone: 888-382-1222.<br /> <br />It is the National DO NOT CALL list. It will only take a minute of your time. <br /> It blocks your number for five (5) years.<br /> You must call from the cell phone number you want to have blocked. You cannot call from a different phone number.<br /><br />HELP OTHERS BY PASSING THIS ON TO ALL YOUR FRIENDS. <br /> It take about 20 seconds.</font></strong> </p><br />My cellphone is for pleasure, not business. <p>Not the kind of pleasure where I'm cleaning faeces off of it though!</p>
