Don't you just hate it when you dial a phone number, then forget who you're phoning? Even worse, when you phone somebody, and somebody who doesn't live there picks up the phone and confuses you?

I just called my dad, and my stepmom's sister answered, I had to stop and think "Hi, is, uhhhhhhh, Ron there?"

Are you all named Ron?

But yes, forgetting can be annoying. Luckily, I don't forget who I'm phoning.

Yeah, everybody in Canada is. Well, just me, my dad, an uncle, both my grandpas. It's a popular name! :)

Good thing you clarified that because I don't know any Ron's besides you.

Ron, isn't a popular name.

jamie, Rob(or Robert or Bobby or Bob) are.
same with adam, kelly, ashley and a few others.

And Ron.

Ok, maybe it's just a popular name in Winnipeg. It must be the weather, or some pollutant in the drinking water, or something. I know 5 in my immediate family (grandpas, uncle, dad, myself), and a manager at Safeway, and at least 4 others. I would hazard to guess that I know more people named Ron than named anything else (except, possibly, Ken. There are two people who work nightcrew [well, not anymore] named Ken MacDonald.. or KennyMac. THAT's confusating!).

whats worse is when your ringing someone and you ring the wrong nunber, like you aunty and your like, uhhh hi just ringing to say hi.. bye!

No, this takes a bit of arrogance and luckily I've never done it but I probably could've a couple times. Dialing the wrong number on accident (possibly due to habit with a frequently called number) and having someone wrong pick up when you say something before saying Hi or whatever that would be totally inappropriate to anyone besides the person to intended to answer the phone.

"Ring your mate" .. sounds like some kind of gay thing.

But my grandma has, several times, phoned my house, I picked up, she said, "Gail?" (that's my aunt)

Don't any of you use the word 'called'? :P

No, called sounds silly. I can call somebody without using a phone, but I can't phone somebody without a phone.

I use the would called. E.g "I will call you after". or "I callled Dave today".

But I didn't correct you here, hismajesty did. Therefore, you should be talking to hismajesty even though you spelled it iago. Perhaps you should be more obvoius with your sarcasm? :P

::) So, what kind of phone do you guys have?

I have a cordless one, it doesn't use a cord!

I have lots of phones. Two cordless, and about 4 corded

When did they start making CORDLESS phones???

As long as I can remember!
