I'm relatively certain I know his name. He's either a Senior or a Junior. Various people have called asking for one or the other including, possibly, a debt collector.

One of the two died, probably about two years ago. There were like two or three people right at the beginning who were just trying to find the guy but at the time I thought like maybe he changed his number for a reason? Then very early on, someone called saying they'd heard he had died and was hoping he was still alive and would pick up, because they'd lost touch. I'm also pretty sure he was a churchgoing Christian. I think a lady from his church was one of the people trying to reach out.

That's most of what I have, but also I've never met him or spoken to him. None of it came from anywhere official. It's just the stuff people say when they think when they've gotten the number wrong except they're all asking for the same person.

There is a Chinese food place that almost has my number on their menu. Their number today is my number with a 7 instead of 2 for one digit. Real easy to mix those two up. Got a lot of calls in high school. I would usually put on a really really bad accent and either take the order or say the cook was sick.

I thought those days were long over but just a few months ago I got another call. It had been so long I didn't even consider doing the bad accent. Wound up talking to the lady for a bit and thanking her for unwittingly reminding me that I still got it.

    OK, now that's just Chaotic Evil.

    I believe a truly evil act would be to call the restaurant afterwards and put the wrong order in with that name and number. I wasted time not food. Time is the one thing we all are spending at the same rate. Chaos wastes time evil wastes food.
