haha.. reminds me of old days of pbxs!

hang each others voicemail greetings for fun...

rofl.. we used to press 1+# and 0+# or 1+* sometimes, always oen fo those
combos.. together (produce a sharper tone) but had to be that combo,on old
analogues, it would break thru most answering-machines and we could then
change for example "welcome to the deans residence.." to "welcome to hot,
sweaty ...."u get the drift :P
lol... those days are over for me now but, darn miss analogue!
gnite!
