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

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

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

Yes sir it is.

What are the primary causes of the persistent smog crisis affecting Delhi and other parts of North India?

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

Do you reside at 1234 X X Lane?

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

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.

Is your number (xxx) xxx-xxxx??

Why, after a divorce, would one still want to ruin the other one’s life?

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

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

If the world was flat, would it be possible to see Mount Everest if it was on the other side of the Earth on a clear sunny day?

Sure no problem officer.

After a few moments he returns.

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?

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