I was trying to reach out to you because we have a Mr X here, who claims you are his legal guardian. He needs you to come down and sign some forms.
Yes sir it is.
After a few moments he returns.
Is your number (xxx) xxx-xxxx??
Long pause, OK. (Inaudible talking). Could you hang on for just a sec?
Do you reside at 1234 X X Lane?

ATTENTION SPIKES UP. What could he want with me? Did I do something wrong? Lord did I forget to pay something? Questions start flying through my head. What would the detention center sheriff want with me?
I hear a pause on the line, it goes quiet for a few seconds.
Looks at phone, sees a number local to me, so I answered.
HELLO
Can you provide some examples of music with a free form structure?

Whew, not in trouble!! But someone named Sean with a similar number is apparently about to have a rather bad day.
