Funny things people say/do on the phone

[Nixy]

My Nan (grandmother) ALWAYS does this when I call. I say "Hi Nan" and she says "Hi Sweetheart", I go on to say whatever I'm calling about and then she says "Who is this anyway?". hahaha as soon as I say "Hi Nan" she knows it's one of her grandkids so "Hi Sweetheart" is an appropriate response but she hardly ever reconizes who it is by my voice I Love my Nan, I'm going to visit her this afternoon

I believe Gonz said it best although in quite stilted
but none the less accurate prose when he recently said:

It's always good to read the witty repartee of our esteemed members,
especially when they really put their brain to work & add to the conversation so.

I do actually have a jacket with my name on it...but again it brings me back to the fact that I don't have a video phone

Is this name stitched on the front left side or emblazoned across the back?

My neighbor, a retired old codger who always says exactly what's on his mind whether it's politically correct or not, sometimes answers the phone (no caller ID) by screaming: "Who the FUCK is bothering me now?!?!"

I would consider that a valid request for information.
