I just find it funny that nameless officials have to tell people that this is "not funny".

I just find it funny that nameless officials have to tell people that this is "not funny".

I read about this in my local news paper not long ago. I would think it would be fairly easy for them to figure out where the calls where coming from by what towers are in use when the phone is in use.

A tower can cover a few miles.  So it doesn't narrow it down too much.

You already threw a door mat at me drunkenly at 2600, so a punch would not be much of an upgrade.

Did you eventually get the onion smell out of your hair?  ;D
