I'm a fairly typical computer geek - I love anything to do with technology. I like to play Scrabble on a Tournament level (chess timers, Custom Tiles and board, the works basically), and I'm enjoying life and every thing in it.

In Russia, cell phones provide you!

Or something like that. (With apologies to Yakov Smirnoff)

At 1:41 this morning, I received a call on my cell phone.

The number was +7495781xxxx (just in case some tries to call this number).

Now, after a few minutes searching Wikipedia, I found out that +7 is the international dialing prefix for Russia and Kazakhstan. and the 495 is the prefix for Moscow.

Yeah... MOSCOW. The Kremlin, KGB, etc. That Moscow.

I don't know ANYONE in Moscow, and only a handful of trusted friends know my cell number.

Just a bizzare thing to see on my cell at 2 in the morning...
