Be careful with those toll-free numbers:

1-800- Did I Dial That Number Correctly?

A guy I worked with in the shipyard many years ago found a working phone line on a ship we were refitting and would sneak away and start dialing 800 numbers- 800 HOT BODS, 800 BIG...you get the idea... and compiled quite a list. Somebody had a bucketful of forethought...


Sometimes the thoughts in my head get so bored, they go for a stroll through my mouth. This is rarely a good thing.

I saw a news article on this yesterday on Comcast. They just gobble up 800 numbers when they become available and then redirect those to other numbers the own and control.

It includes Chicago.

1800-Chicago.

Which *used* to connect you to the city's tourism line.

Gr any OSU fans...(Oregon State) Their 1800 number is 1-800 GO BEAVS

NOT

1-800 BEAVERS

I wonder if South Carolina has a similar issue

Now that would be a matchup!
