Maybe the baby is crying and they just want to sooth their child so they hurry you. Maybe they are frying some chicken and it is beginning to burn just as the phone rings. Maybe they just woke up and are trying to just hear what you are saying. I don't think that thing can be a true judge of why a person sounds like he does.Lucy Sternhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15551301072676727397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8699569.post-1124224830436062102005-08-16T13:40:00.000-07:002005-08-16T13:40:00.000-07:00Great comments guys.

But then again, I am horrifially guilty of multi-tasking, so maybe I am trying to throw you off my track. <BR/><BR/>Men are (excuse the sweeping generalization) infamous if not famous for hating phone conversations. I think the divorce/break up rate would climb even higher if this thing were used to test the validity or verility of any relationship.New White Kedshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07697194314162474469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8699569.post-1124149730866092962005-08-15T16:48:00.000-07:002005-08-15T16:48:00.000-07:00Ummm sorry Martin, did you post something, I wasn'...Ummm sorry Martin, did you post something, I wasn't paying attention.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11492413587506899012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8699569.post-1124075084117494522005-08-14T20:04:00.000-07:002005-08-14T20:04:00.000-07:00I have my own test for that.

Telephone conversations are impersonal enough without body language and eye contact - seems it would be hard to tell anything from them.LoraLoohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06250173105971467371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8699569.post-1124053892936910102005-08-14T14:11:00.000-07:002005-08-14T14:11:00.000-07:00Is this post referring to me?
