Did you ask for that number or was it random?

I worked hard to obtain a few.

Tried to do a startup around the voicemails people left on the calls but it never took off.

How did you acquire that number? I'd love to own a 867-5309.

"numbers", so I'm guessing it wasn't random.

You have to be over...40?

I know the song, I'm just saying, he has it in multiple area codes, so it can't be random.

I very much doubt it's possible to get an 867-5309 without specifically requesting it.
