What’s the weirdest phone call you have ever received?

I hear a pause on the line, it goes quiet for a few seconds.

I was trying to reach out to you because we have a Mr X here, who claims you are his legal guardian. He needs you to come down and sign some forms.

Whew, not in trouble!! But someone named Sean with a similar number is apparently about to have a rather bad day.

ATTENTION SPIKES UP. What could he want with me? Did I do something wrong? Lord did I forget to pay something? Questions start flying through my head. What would the detention center sheriff want with me?

Is your number (xxx) xxx-xxxx??

Long pause, OK. (Inaudible talking). Could you hang on for just a sec?

Why would you think you're fit to be a model?

Hi this is Sargent Moss from the County detention center. Is this Sean?

After a few moments he returns.

No sir I sure don't, I live in the next city over.

Why do gun owners feel the need to defend themselves with deadly weapons? Can they not just talk things out like civilized people do?

Looks at phone, sees a number local to me, so I answered.

Sure no problem officer.

What sparked your interest in books and how did you develop a love for them? What are the advantages and disadvantages of being an avid reader?

Yes sir it is.

Do you reside at 1234 X X Lane?

Do what? Officer, I'm sorry I have no kids of my own, and I don't know anybody by that name.

Can you share 100 facts about yourself?

I'm sorry to bother you, my staff just told me our guy corrected his information and had a number off for his home phone. Have a good day. Hangs up.

HELLO
