    But, telemarketers just call every number, one after another, with no concern for anybody’s name.

    Tim’s newly spelled surname looks like a stutter.

    That seems a little extreme to avoid telemarketers. I just refuse to answer the phone to numbers and names I don’t recognize. If it’s important, they’ll leave a message.

    Apparently if you create a name like Aaaaaaa Aaaaaaa for your email Contacts list, it’s supposed to help protect you from having your list hacked and sending spam and/or viruses to people on it. I’ve done that and it (mostly) seems to work. !0000 is supposed to be effective, too.

    I imagine pronouncing it with a raspberry: “THPPPPBT-rice.”

    I don’t remember if it was in a school science film or on Discovery (an educational TV show for kids in the 1960s), but that’s how I heard that fish can taste all over their bodies. Fish in general, no particular species mentioned.
