That's more work but it seems to trump my asking the caller to please hold on and then putting the phone down and leaving it there.

Laurence, No brag, just fact. MIL talked 'til the earpiece melted to my head on old school landlines. One day, I tried it, stg. Was in the mater bedroom, left to the master bath for a bit o' relief and returned, expecting she had hung up. NOT SO!! Still.....speaking non-stop w/o the need to inhale along the way.

I ran this by MoSup while she was standing behind me. When it was done I said, "I can't believe you didn't laugh at that!"
"I laughed"
I mean out loud
"I SOL"
Huh?
"I 'smiled out loud'"

One time, a bunch of us were talking in my office. The phone rang and it was a wrong number, one of those jerks who can't be dialing a wrong number and wants to know what you're doing on the line when he wants to yell at someone else. "Is this extension 4702? THEN I WANNA TALK TO JOE ALBERTSON!" So I hung up and it rang again almost immediately. I picked up the phone and handed it to the next guy. And so on.
The idiot dialed the same wrong number and got a different wrong person four times. One guy did an Australian accent. By the third call, we could all hear the jerk screaming. I don't know why he stopped at four. Maybe it was the laughter. -

I used to lay the phone down while my mother was talking on endlessly for hours without inhaling. I could go use the bathroom, fix myself a drink, grab a snack and when I came back she would never know I was gone.
If I had to get off the phone in a hurry, I would interrupt her, then start telling about some adorable thing that one of her grandchildren had done that day, in mid-word, while I was talking, I would hang up. She spent years thinking that I had some of the worst phone service in the country. -

When my daughter was 2 she loved listening on the phone. So when a telemarketer would call I would just hand her the phone and walk away. They would sometimes keep her entertained for up to 10 minutes until they discovered that they were talking to a toddler.
