Remember in the pre-Internet age, when Sports-phone, Dial-a-Joke and instant lottery results were just a phone call away?  Get ready for some mindless fun:

Someone — and we still don’t know who — flashes back to those days with a phone line that’s becoming an Internet sensation thanks to a Twitter post.

“Callin’ Oates” — note the wordplay — is up and running at 719-26–OATES or 719-266-2837. Your call gets you the choice of four [lastfm link_type="artist_info"]Hall and Oates[/lastfm] classics played down the phone for your listening pleasure.

[lastfm link_type="artist_info"]John Oates[/lastfm] gets a kick out of Callin’ Oates. He tells us exclusively, “I heard about it a few days ago and its going bonkers… any press is good these days!!!”
