Ooh! Ooh! I've gotta couple.

I was.. 16ish.. I was supposed to page my best friend's stepdad when I was home so they would know when I was leaving.
So I call the pager number, leave my number, and go about my business.
I couldn't figure out why she wasn't calling be back, but about an hour later the phone rang.
It wasn't my friend.
It was some guy, wanting to know who I was, and why I paged him.
He must've kept me on the phone for 20 minutes talking..
He then said, "You know what this is? This is fate." And he kind of laughed.
I said, "Hmm..." Wanting to tell him I was 16, since he sounded like he was at least in his thirties.
He said, "Well, that sounds like a no."
I laughed, and he said his good byes.
I wonder sometimes, it maybe it was fate, and I spit in it's face, lol.

Another time, it was a solicitor.
After informing them that the party they wished to reach wasn't avaliable, she kept talking.
She says, "Come on, this isn't funny. Put your Mommy on the phone."
My eyes bugged out of my head. She then says:
"Oh, I bet you like this. I bet you're getting off on this." *Add some heavy breathing and obscene noises.*
My jawdropped, I bust out laughing, and hung up, lol.
If I would have known where the call came from, I would have called the supervisor, and threatened legal action against the company over it.
What if that would have really been a kid? I woulda been pissed!
At the time, it was just funny though, LOL.

My number is, by sheer coincidence, one digit off from my sister's. (1 versus 7, so it's even easy to read wrong) We both lots of the other one's calls. At least once/week.

As for weird wrong calls... I got a ten minute yelling from a heartbroken girl who broke up with me via my answering machine because I had slept around, then directly after there was a short message saying "Sorry, not you, wrong number".

She sounded nice. I must admit that I had a momentary urge to hit the dialup.

It only would've been common decency to call and console her, Liar.

I know. I'm such a prick.

When I lived in South Carolina, I once came home to find a wrong number answering machine message explaining when the caller's flight would be in, where to pick him up, etc. I felt bad thinking of him missing his friends and getting lost, so I took down the number and called him back to tell him he had the wrong number. Turned out he was in the Yukon. I was glad I didn't leave the poor man hanging with no one to pick him up after that flight.

You're nicer than me.

It was about 4AM. I'd just rolled into bed after a party and was just sinking into an inebriated coma when my phone rang. It was a guy who identified himself as Brian and he wanted to know if Tom was there. Now the odd thing was that two of the guys at the party I'd been to were brothers, Tom and Brian. So in my um debilitated state I connected them to the caller. Anyway I didn't tell him he had a wrong number, only that Tom wasn't there (I doubt his wife would have liked it if I'd brought him home with me.)

Before I could say anything else this guy blurts out. "Shit! I drove my car into the river. There's no one around, I don't even know where I am and this is my last quarter. Take down this number (he blurted something out) and get a hold of Tom and have him call me, okay?"

I agreed, he thanked me profusely and hung up. I went to sleep. It wasn't till the next day that I'd realised what I'd done. Ever since I wondered how that poor stick got his car out of the river--and how mad he was at Tom's girlfriend.

Hey Shanglan, been meaning to tell you how much I like your AV of DaVinci's Horse . Last spring I took my nieces to see Il Cavallo. The thing stands 24 feet and they were pretty impressed, especially the eight year old. She was walking under it and looked up and I heard her whisper "Oh wow!" Apparently she didn't realize it was going to be anatomically correct and in a very large way.

*laugh* Jfinn, I might not have been much better if the man had called at 4 AM. Fortunately for him, it was merely early evening and I could give him a coherent answer.

So glad that you like it. I think Da Vinci really got my good side. Your story reminds me of Gulliver's Travels where they parade the Lilliputians between his legs. Thanks for the link - I had no idea that I am evidently an object of worship in Grand Rapids. I'll have to go out to see myself some time
