What's mildly amusing you today?

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.

Next time put the number in Google search, and you can probably find out.
