All of you are a bunch of tools. Yes, wanting the number is stupid. But having it and selling it is pure genius. Would you like $10K from your phone number? Hell YES.

too bad number portability requires the number be transferred to an account with the same name and billing info. That won't work too great. Can't wait until they figure that one out!

:Q


Anyone that doesn't know this song is showing their age (too young or too old), or never listened to music in the 80's.

More info here http://www.876-5309.com , which says there was no Jenny, though VH1 had a One Hit Wonder or a Where Are They Now episode a few years ago on this song, talking to the real Jenny. Site also says Tommy moved here to Nashville.

I remember that show... what was it.... TRUE SPIN

here's the episode link

True Spin
How exactly does one get "Double Vision?" Do you know what a "White Wedding" really is? What makes "Le Freak" so chic? And if Tommy Tutone likes "Jenny" so much why is he telling us her number? If you're not sure, check out True Spin, the show that will help clear away all the myths! All these questions and more will be answered for you when you. We'll examine these three songs and give you the low down on what the artist was really trying to convey in the tune.

$22,300 right now with 6 days left. The buyer better turn around and sell this or they're dummer than dumb.

You can put down $50k now and I'm sure you'll still be outbid.

I live in State College, Pa. where 867 is one of our exchanges. I just did a reverse number lookup on Verizon and found that some named Jennifer actually has that number here.

Reason: If you're too young to remember the song, you're probably too young to like 80's music.
