Is the Chinese economy currently collapsing? If not, what could potentially cause it to collapse?
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.
Yes sir it is.
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?
‘Gas station heroin’ is technically illegal and widely available. Here are the facts - AP News
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.
Do what? Officer, I'm sorry I have no kids of my own, and I don't know anybody by that name.
Is your number (xxx) xxx-xxxx??
Hi this is Sargent Moss from the County detention center. Is this Sean?
After a few moments he returns.
How are Hinduism and Sikhism related, considering they both originated in Punjab, India?
Sure no problem officer.
HELLO
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.
No sir I sure don't, I live in the next city over.
