Yah, same as when I don't look closely enough at the caller ID, it turns out to be my brother rather than my son of the same name. Crap.
Maybe change the names, or distinctive ring tones on your contact list to distinguish them?

A high school friend just turned 65.
I reminded him that 65 is the same as 18 in Celsius.

About 6 years ago, I was at the college gym riding one those fancy bikes that go nowhere. The older fella next to me was doing the same. A couple of guys came up to him as he cycled and said, "Hey Tom, good to see you still riding. How old are you?" He answered, "I'm 68". One of them said, "Keep it up and you live even longer." I couldn't stop myself at that point and said, "Hell I'm only shootin' for 65." Nobody replied. Doesn't matter, I still say stuff anyway.
Yah, I'm 66F, but at some point Celsius won't matter.
As far as the phone, I just need to pay better attention. My brother needs to respect the restraining order. 😏

That's sad. My brother (RIP) used to call me 50-100 times a day (and night) for years. He kind of had an excuse though.
Still drove me nuts.

Robert Murray Smith has just made a speaker out of a pencil and crisp packet on you tube (episode 2121) - sounds dreadful though.
Surely the prime location for a Carry On movie? (If it was set in Yorkshire - Ah, love, ahm off t' Fawcett Inn).

A good friend of mine, who enjoys his solitude (as do I) told me something that I hold dear. He said, "Greg I want you to really how much I care. Let me say it this way. If you are ever in need, no matter how much, and have no one to turn to, and especially no matter what time day or night, don't call me."
That same friend gave me a sign to hang above my shop door. It read:
>> I will try to be nicer if you try being smarter <<<
Yes, and having an old but understanding partner, can make the day nice too...
