		<description>Two phone numbers ago I used to receive calls @ midnite or 1am—It was always the same drunk, asking for the same girlfriend. It was before caller ID and it got to be scary. . . Even more scary were the daytime calls during which the Corrections Operator would ask if I would accept charges from inmate {name}. And people wonder some of us screen our calls!!!</description>

		<description>Brandy, I get calls from bill collectors all the time, but for a different reason. I have a very common last name and lucky me, another person with my name used to live in my town~of 1,500. And she didn&#039;t pay her bills apparantly.  I&#039;m so sick of having to call these people back and let them know that no I wasn&#039;t born in 1967 and not the last 4 numbers of my SSN are not XXXX.  :roll: And then get talked to like I&#039;m some kind of loser, they obviously don&#039;t believe me despite the fact that I have one of the most common last names in America!
UGH.

Drew sounds like a real prize! :roll:</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t get it. If I was one of those girls I would have gotten the hint the first time I heard &quot;you&#039;ve got the wrong number&quot;. I have a really easy phone number. People ask me if it ever belonged to a pizza takeout company. I say no - we bought in a new subdivision &amp; were the first to have the number LOL.</description>

		<description>LOL

Jill, you have to put up with some crazy stuff. I doubt I&#039;d have the patience to be as nice as you&#039;ve been to those girls for the last 5 years. After the first one I&#039;m sure I&#039;d be pretty harsh. Stupid Drew and other males who act like him.</description>

		<description>I know how you feel. We have had our home number for over 5 years, since we bought and moved into our house. For over five years now we&#039;ve received phone calls from EVERYONE (but most of all bill collectors) for the people who had our number before us. 
Next time ask if they&#039;ve seen Drew recently, that he&#039;s behind in his child support. *G*</description>

		<description>LOL, sounds like Drew has some class....yes that was sarcasm.  What I&#039;d do is like many who already suggested, turn it to your favor, put it in a story, be the wife/girlfriend or what not.  Personally I like the Paster Drew part myself.

Or as someone who worked in an adult store, and was asked what type of dancers we had that night constantly (Fetish store does not equal dancers/strippers but people never learn) I&#039;d tell them we had Latino Midgets from South America or Furies.  Strange enough after a while the phone calls stopped 

Loved how there was always a long pause then they would hang up!</description>
