This is like when one moves, and subsequently moves to another Congregation - the Congregation one has been with all their life & so many of the friends still see you as someone's child and not the...
i agree with you 100% robbie. I was so glad to finally leave my hall when Lauren and I got married, and simply start fresh with a hall I hadn't been in for 13 years and no one knew me.
I refuse to change my area code. I only live in Vineland. I'm not FROM here. Besides, I've had the same cell # since I was 18! I don't ever want to change it.
Oh, but it's for reasons like this (applying for jobs in NYC) that I tried to get 718 ('cause at least could mean...hey, this guy lives in Brooklyn, since Brooklyn shares the area code with SI), and when T-Mobile told me they don't have any 718s, I said, then do you have (it was even more of a shot in the dark..but...) 212??? 'Cause then, it'd look like I live in Manhattan baby!
Of course the answer was "no" (well, actually when no SI 718s were available he said what other area has 718 & I said Brooklyn, so he looked for a Brooklyn number but didn't have those either)..."but we have 347."
I said, well, I guess I'll try at another time. He said wait, don't you want a 347? I said, eh, no thanks... I need 718. That's like the trademark, no one recognises 347. It still looks weird.
Do you know where 516 is?

Wow. I keep getting a call from a number out there but, whoever it is doesn't leave a msg. I looked it up but when told me LI I thought it was just a cell number that got assigned an off area code. Turns out it's a non pub landline =(
