Gone are the days of having a friend call you while you’re on a first date at a scheduled time with an “Emergency” that requires your immediate attention. And no longer will you have to sit through that redundant meeting at work anymore.

1. Find a date. Use whatever method works for you. Here are a few simple ways:

• Match.com - Online Dating Service.
• Your local bar - Real World Dating Service - plus a little dose of liquid courage never hurt (much).
• Your Friend’s Co-Worker - “He’s such a good guy - you have so much in common, you both like dogs! How crazy is that?”

2. Before date - go to Call The Future. This service will allow you to set up a phone call at a predetermined time in the future. Whether you choose to use this call for good or evil is completely up to you.

3. If at a meeting at work, when said call comes in, make sure you say one of the following phrases loud enough for everybody to hear as your walking out of the conference room with your phone to your ear:

• “What? The house is on fire!?”
• “Little Billy broke what!?”
• “Sell Sell! Every share! Sell!”

Good Luck!
