You know, if a guy said that too me I'd probably give him my number, and then be totally shocked if he called me back because it totally would have gone over my head. But I'm just clueless like that. :) Really clever pick up line!! ~Heather

That's a great line to post on line about a phone line that men line up to offer their numbers you can hang on your clothes line. How's that for a line I thought I was going to flat line getting it out and that's no line!
