Trickie,
to figure out if it is a wiring problem in your house or coming from outside, you can test a phone at your phone box. the gray outside box is closed with a simple screw, unscrew it and you will see there is a line plugged in that goes to the rest of your house. simply unplug this and plug in a simple corded phone and test it out. my guess is you have bad wiring in your house. if you try this out, tell me how it goes and i can offer additional steps. ive dealt with this issue personally, i know it's really annoying.
oh... and way to throw off the feds like that, it was really convincing. :)
dear overreacters,
seriously, what is with you and your band of retards with your "the government wants to hear all my calls!" bullshit? i dont care if the gov. hears me talking to friends. hell, the government doesnt want to hear what i have to say or you either. the gov. cant listen to everyone all the time as some fools claim. storing that info would seriously be a massive problem. additionally, how are they going to listen to everyone? lets say they have a million people that listen to everyone's calls 24/7. this means each person has to listen to 300 people's conversations. im sure each of you know of someone who seems to have a phone permanently attached to their head and with a handful out of 300 people were like this, it would take more time than there is in a day to listen to it. personally, i hope the government is tapping my phone so they can hear my complaints.
ps... i heard drain-o tastes really great, try it out and tell me how you like it.
