Subject: Stupidest Question Asked-Part Deux
We are a loquacious lot! The other thread was up to 114 and really taking a long time to post, thus, part Two!

Finally thought of one, actually heard is more like it. The phone rang at 530a this morning. I was up, like a fool who couldn't sleep. Unlike me, Rog was in bed, sound asleep, like every night, when he isn't working out of town.

I clear my throat, pick up the receiver and say, "Hello?" and hear, "Is Roger there?"

It is always the tv station people who call, all hours of the night and early morning. Nobody else calls then. They always ask that, never saying "May I speak to....".

I am always SO tempted to say, "No, uh...he didn't come last night. Do YOU know where he is????"
OR: "Roger, who?"
OR: "I don't know!"
"Yes.", then just wait for them to remember the manners they apparently weren't taught or forgot!
