Last night I had one of the best conversations on the phone, ever. If you own this phone number, I'm talking about you: 612-588-0064. So I get a call at 10:23pm and I answer, "This is Dan."
The guy is belligerent and starts going off about how this (my phone number) is his mom's and I must've kidnapped her. He asks me all these personal questions, but I make up some of the answers but tell him truthful things about me. Still, he's convinced that I've kidnapped his mom that really is of no value to me or anyone really. She's old, like 72 or something. He's still convinced that I've got her locked up in my trunk and that I'm holding her for ransom, I've tried to explain to him that I don't have his mom that she means nothing to me and that logically speaking there are several reasons how she wouldn't be answering the phone all of which do not involve kidnapping/extortion/ransom. Still, he doesn't believe me and asks me if his mom's OK. To which I reply that I don't know, probably. He says he's got me locked in on GPS and knows that I'm lying. I don't know exactly how a GPS could tell him that but I guess it's one of those new features.
Basically the call lasts 16 minutes and ends when I tell him I'm approaching traffic and need to get off the phone. Which he hangs up and that's the end.

damn! i haven't gotten a funny, belligerent call since some girl repeatedly DC'd "Pono" the first day I owned my phone and number.
It is hilarious how these people are so unable to believe 1) they may have made a mistake or 2)the number may have been reassigned.
i like talking to wrong numbers (usually) it's just when they keep calling assuming that things are going to change when they keep dialing the same 7 or 10 digits over and over.
this one was funny. i wonder if i should call the guy back. yeah... i think i will call back.
