True Detective Stories
By Wyatt Earp | December 11, 2009
Can you guess what I did to instigate this story? If you guessed “Answered the phone,” go to the head of the class. Here’s the conversation, exactly as they occurred.
Me: “Detective division, may I help you?”
Female: “Aisha speaking, how may I help you?”
(A puzzled look appears on my face, as Aisha called me, not the other way around.)
Me: “Um, this is the detective division. May I help you??”
Female: “This is Aisha, may I help you?”
(Since this chick was obviously not a MENSA member, I saw an opportunity and took it.)
Me: “Yes, I’d like to order a cheeseburger and a large Coke.”
Female: “Um . . . sorry, you have the wrong number.” (Hangs up.)
Wyatt – 1. Aisha – 0.

Some people. I think we are reaching the end of the gene pool on some of the citizens in our inner city areas.

Ha ha ha ha… Seems you fell for one of the ‘old ones’. Conference call two other numbers, but don’t tell them. Let them both answer the phone and listen to the hilarity.
Of course it’s sophmoric, but sometimes it is very funny. Wyatt, I’ll bet you make some calls tomorrow.

You should have asked her if her refrigerator is running. Or if she had Prince Albert in a can.

How come I never think of the great answers at the time. After the fact I always have a great answer. Dang, I hate it when that happens. MUD

Watuschski – I’m sure his teachers didn’t have a lot to work with.
USAdmiral – Shallow pool. No lifeguard is on duty.
Wagonsux – Working on that as we speak.
John D – The classics never go out of style.
Rick – Well, otherwise the damned thing would ring all day.
RT – To the nth degree.
MUD – I felt exactly the same way. Too freakin’ slow.
DL474 – And not in the good horror-film way.
