The answer for this could get rather complicated in a hurry, but the simplest answer and solution is to use the free sound recording program, Audacity. This isn't going to give you studio-quality recordings by any means, but you'll probably be suprised at how decent the sound can be...the quality is dependent on a lot of factors (what you're recording, for example), but Audacity and a cheap USB microphone has given good results for podcasts, and converting cassettes to mp3s.
Audacity is free from the Sourceforge website. The windows version (I'm assuming you have a computer that runs windows!) is downloadable from here: http://audacity.sourceforge.net/download/windows (if you don't have a windows computer, there are versions of Audacity for Macintosh and Linux as well at http://audacity.sourceforge.net/download/)
If you want to make mp3's you'll have to download the LAME encoder (a link for that is on the website I listed). Don't be turned off by the extra download, installing Audacity is a simple process!
Using Audacity is also quite simple, but you'll have to take time to practice with it a little bit. You also may need to learn how to change settings on your computer's audio options.
Hope this helps!

Call your answering machine, and sing into the phone.
