I just had someone on the telephone asking if this was the mall. When I said no, she wanted to know if this was SportChek… nope! Then she verified the phone number, which was _my_ phone number! :o Weird stuff, though it reminds me of what happened back in February. Then, I had some dude calling to ask if this was Coast Mountain Sports. Hmm… my number can’t really be that of the local sports stores around here! (otherwise I’d have a lot more calls of this nature) F\_X That was copied and pasted as part of a post I was amking to another message board. (and whilst replying to **Davebear** in his thread, I decided to include that too) ---

Oops… the :o should have been a :eek: (y’see, that’s the code for a surprised face on this other message board) And “amking” should have been “making.” I swear I type way too fast sometimes. F\_X ---
