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

Sure no problem officer.

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.

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

How do you like to be pegged?

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?

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

Is your number (xxx) xxx-xxxx??

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

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

Why do I feel so lazy every time I get into my room?

After a few moments he returns.

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

Do you reside at 1234 X X Lane?

Should I have left it alone and kept quiet? I came out as gay to my adult kids last week. Age 61 married 15 years, divorced for 20. I feel so guilty for ruining their lives by living a lie.

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

HELLO

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.

Do you think there will ever be a movie that features a line such as “You graduated at the top of your class in liberal arts, we need your help”?

Yes sir it is.

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