Here's a prank call nobody makes. You look up a number in the phone book, then call.
"Hello?" she answers.
In your deepest voice, ask, "Is this Valerie Nab?"
"Yes?" she answers in a half-question.
"That's good." Then, taking your mouth away from the receiver, say loud enough that she'll still hear, "Location confirmed."
Then hang up.
Nobody makes that prank. No clue why.
Don't know about a prank call, John, but would make a cool opening for a short story!!
ReplyDeleteThat really made me laugh - and I, too, instantly felt like I was reading a short story (of course, that makes you the psychotically intriguing main character - not sure if that's good or not).
