"Did you call this number?" Some annoying things about caller ID

This morning at 7:45 (!!?) some cat calls us up asking if we called his phone.

Whacked Caller ID Dude (WCID): "Uh...oh, I'm sorry."

Me: "That's ok, hello." (I think I was pretty congenial for quarter till 8)

WCID: "Yes, did you call this phone?"

Me: "I haven't called anyone this morning."

WCID: "No, this was last - yesterday."

Me: "I call a lot of people. Who is this?"

WCID: "My name is Joe Cossick (sp?)"

Me: "Uh huh, yeah, I don't know you."

WCID: "This number was on my caller ID. Did you call my phone."

Me: "This is silly. Goodbye" CLICK

Dude needs better things to do with his time.
