When was the last time you almost fell down from laughing? I had to call the Texas Laporoscopy Center today to dispute a billing error (long story). Anyway, they had to put me on hold and this "On-Hold Music" kicked in. They had some wedding singer record an original tune that almost had me wetting myself. I've called them 3 times now asking to be put on hold just so I could play this gem for people in the office. None of them have recovered yet and they've started calling it themselves just to hear it. I kid you not....for a good time call 409-719-0009 and tell them you wish to be put on hold because you need to hear the inspiring on-hold music. If you don't trust me, you can point your browser to http://www.felixspiegelmd.com and click on Contact Us, compare the phone numbers, and you'll know I'm not setting you up!

After you hear it, imagine being left on hold for 1/2 hour having to hear this over 60 times in a row! Now I'm craving cheese and corn both at the same time!

I can't wait to see who actually calls this...they are going to be SOO mad at you!!!! That's really funny though!

Kathy,

Did you call it? Did ya? Huh? Did ya? I'm still laughing.

I'm always in for some fun, but nobody is answering the line... I'll try again tomorrow.

But since you asked, I'm still laughing my ass off at something that happened yesterday.

Last week, I sent a girlfriend (no names) a gag gift.. a grown-up "toy" if you will. Yesterday the United States Post Office left a message on my answering machine stating they are holding a VIBRATING PACKAGE. I laughed so hard that I started sobbing at my desk, because I had to call the post office in order for them to deliver the parcel. Make a note: The US Post Office must either verify the contents of "vibrating parcels" or they are forced to open them.

Delarla,

You were supposed to turn it off after use.....and what a cheap skate you are giving a used gift to a friend! This was funny, bet you had a real chuckle when they hung up.

Do try the number again tomorrow, this is the best laugh I've had in months.

LOL .. dont ya know you're not meant to ship it with the batteries put in, DeLarla?

ok, that was hysterical !!!!! Did you actually have to identify the contents of the package to the US Postal Service???

OMG thats freakin funny!!

I will try an remember to call again tomorrow. I waited and got transferred to the operator but no hold music played before it started ringing. I can just see them getting all these calls tomorrow from people just asking to be put on hold........oh well, a little fun never hurt anyone.

I took my daughter to an audition in NYC, when we got there my bag was vibrating and humming, everyone in the waiting room was staring at me like I was some kind of freak, it was her battery operated toothbrush, I was laughing so hard!!! Every one in the waiting area probably thought I had a "toy" in the bag, but somehow her toothbrush got activated.

OMG Lisa I about spit my coffee on my key board..

I for sure am going to call it today...

You learn something new every day: When you buy one of these "toys" the store, by law, has to open the package and insert the batteries to make sure the item works since, thank God they aren't returnable! Then they turn it off and cram it back in the package. It's not like I wanted to touch the thing, it was embarrassing enough.

YES, I had to call the very serious postal worker and tell him the contents. He tried to remain serious but I heard his coffee snort out of his nose as he tried to muffle his laugh. Poor guy.

Just when I didn't think this could get any funnier, I discovered that TLC now has a TV commercial....with the same freakin on-hold music. You've got to call that number 409-719-0009 between 9:00AM and 5:00PM Central time to ask to be put on hold. Thank God the service they perform is so much more professional then their commercial production.

Bobalooey,

is the words to the tune something like, "Dr Spiegel knows what youre going through... lap band may be the answer for you... " ? ? ? ? ?

I am so excited look at me, I lost the weight permantly, Adjustable and Reversible, it changed my life once and for all.............take control of your obestiy and your life at Texas Laproscopy Center!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

oh and you'll get TLC at TLC......

Just called the #, the girl thought I was crazy when I asked to be put on hold, I heard her tell someone, why are we being asked to be put on hold??? How many of you have been calling today???
