I just got a new cell phone, but it's red. Should I be worried about it ringing at 3am?

If it does, what should I do? I'm concerned.

3. Post the number here.
Then it's guaranteed the phone will ring at 3:00 AM. Given such certainty, there's nothing left to worry about.

4. If it does I'm afraid
you're not qualified to answer it. Sorry - see if Hillary is available.

7. Forward the call to Hillary
Hillary sleeps in her clothes and in full make-up in hopes that the phone will ring at 3am and she can spring into action.

8. Good idea. I'll keep that in mind. What do I do if it rings at 2:48 am?
I'm confused and want to make sure to Do the Right Thing. Maybe I should just paint the phone blue?

9. If you paint it red, white, and blue no terrorists will strike the US!
This way you can turn the phone off at night because you'll have everything under control with your patriot phone. :patriot:

10. No. Just place it in a glass of water on your nightstand.
Sleep tight.

11. Don't pay your bill if you can't figure out how to turn it off...
...also, are you paranoid? Do you thing the F.B.I is tapping your phone calls?

16. Perhaps I should not have gotten a red one. Seems that color causes problems, esp at 3 am.

17. You should buy a Brinks Home Security System
At least that's the message I got from the Hillary 3am ad.

18. We have a really big dog, will that work? It didn't ring last night, phew.
I'm tired today though, kept waiting for it to ring and couldn't remember if I'd set all my clocks back so had to worry for over and hour. "is it the old 3am or the new 3 am?"
