... and I find it pretty funny. Its on my cordless phone at home. It probably means something useful, but it reminded me of that joke, "Forget caller ID, how about caller IQ?"

And in case you can't see it in my totally crappy pictures,D) it says "Caller IQ"

It's obviously a sign that your phone has artificial intelligence. Which means it may start answering calls itself and holding conversations when you are not around.

You'd better keep a close eye on it.

Could that be considered an eye cue?

what would be cool is if you could set it to screen and disallow phone calls from anyone with an IQ lower than, say, 100 (or any other number you want...higher or lower). It would be the death of telemarketing

My friend's voicemail box at school somehow called his house on its own and recorded the conversation. Weirdest thing ever.

My friend played me back the message (saved as an "unheard message" in his voicemail box). You hear ringing, then his mom picks up the phone and says "hello? hello? anyone there?" then you hear his dad ask "who was it?" and his mom says "oh it must have been a wrong number" and hangs up.
