Being hit on? Give a fake number

Ladies, if a man is pestering you for your phone number, one of the easiest ways to get him to leave you alone is to give him a fake number. Just make sure it contains the right amount of numbers, otherwise he'll catch on. "Really? You phone number is only two digits?" Anyway, Anheuser-Busch has a really clever site set up called www.notmynumber.com which actually lists local numbers for some cities which contain a message telling would-be suitors why they were given this faux number in the first place. I called the one for Minneapolis and heard a message from a girl explaining to me she didn't want to hang out in a sports bar with me, but that I must not be all bad since I was drinking Budweiser. Despite it being a recording, I still argued with her for two hours.
