I am not here...or am I? I could simply be watching you post messages and screening...hmmm remember the old style answering machines that you could do that with, it was so easy, just turn up the volume and listen to who it was then pick up if you wanted to talk.......now its all voice mail and you have to wait until they are done before you really know who it is, unless you have caller ID but that takes all the fun out of prank phone calls...arrrggghhhh tradition is dead I guess:-(

*67 owns caller id.





















unless they have caller id blocking blocker. h:

 

there is a way around that too. but I cant rember the * code. I'll have to look it up.



<~~Still use an answering machine. its digital and can I can start and stop recording a phone call at any time during the call. can record up to 14 hrs of a call.

can call from ANY phone to check messages or turn it on. benifits of voicemail with the screening ability of a machine. :thumbup:

I think so haven't used it in a LONG time. No need to hide my ID from who I am calling.

I know if you dile 811 it'll tell you the # from which you are calling.

So if your ever somewhere and dont know the # your calling from dial 811.


911 - Duh
811 - Number your calling from
711 - Operator
611 - N/A
511 - N/A
411 - Information
311 - gave busy signal then dead air for about 60 sec.
211 - N/A
111 - N/A
011 - N/A
