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

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

Do you reside at 1234 X X Lane?

Yes sir it is.

Have you been arrested or investigated?

Sure no problem officer.

Why does the USA continue to be the driver of the world economy?

After a few moments he returns.

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