That's funny Zen, I just came in here to relate a humorous phone experience:

Phone rings, caller ID says the name is "Important Phone Call," which is a gambit I've never seen a telemarketer use before. I'm amused enough to actually answer it.

There is a very long pause, until finally a young man comes on and asks incredulously, "Are you from Texas?!" Like, the same way one would say, "Are you serious?!"

I hung up after that, but not before he heard me laughing. I wish I'd stayed on the line just to hear what in the world he could have been hawking.
