If go to Google and type in your phone number, i.e. 202-555-7639, it will return your name and address and even offer to give you driving directions to your house. Also, AOL White Pages, after searching for a name and city, it will return your phone number and all of your places or residence for the past five years.

You can choose to remove your information from both of their databases. I suggest you do a search and remove your info, you never know who may stumble across it and make your life hell.

I don't really get pranks any more, but I'd appreciate a good one. I used to be a professional prank caller/pizza orderer. LOL.

OMG, me too. . . as a preteen too.

I certainly did my share of prank calls when I was a teenagers. Hey, what else is there to do in a small town when you are 14 or 15?? One of my favorites (with my best friend/cousin on 3 way) was to call some geeky/weird boy and tell him that I had a crush on him. I would call her high school and she would call mine (wouldn't want anyone to recognize my voice). We would tell them to meet us at a sporting event/skating rink, etc. the next week. We would die laughing when they showed up looking for their crush. Now that I think about it, that was really mean!!

I hate people who do the *69 call back thing though. "I received a call from this number." is just stupid. If I had wanted you to know I called, I would have left amessage!!
