Hah. When I was younger a friend of mine had run away from home and so they got their first caller ID box and had it hidden in the closet so that if he called home they would be able to figure out where he was staying. So once we found out they had the caller ID box we used *67 to call anonymously. Caller ID was expensive when it first came out in those days.

*67 only worked on people who didnt know they could call Ameritech (member that??) and get the last number that called without caller ID. A lady down the street we prank called knew this, we didnt at the time... they got us man!

My parents were wise to that shit. If we tried to pull the "I'm spending the night at prairie's house" my dad tell me I'm going to call their house at a random time between 9 pm and 1 am. You better answer. And he would, too.
