BLAME BRUCE
Wanna ring God up on your cell? You're not alone. Hordes of moviegoers/pranksters/imbeciles have been dialing a number featured in Bruce Almighty that provides Jim Carrey with a direct link to God (aka Morgan Freeman). Most movies use a fake 555 prefix, but Bruce uses 776 — an exchange that is valid in many parts of the country. Among the folks sharing God's digits: A woman in Pinellas Park, Fla., who reportedly is receiving 20 crank calls on her cell phone per hour. Thankfully, this story has a happy ending: She's threatening to sue Universal.
