Usually I get landline phone calls looking for ..,well !!!, .. not for me, but for someone else , a person I never heard of, let's call him "John Doe."
John Doe gets a summons to appear in court from a collection agency and the only person who can bring him is I myself.
John Doe and I appear in court.
Judge: "John Doe , you owe money and the collection agency is here to collect" .
Myself: "Wait ! , your honor , my name is Stanley and John Doe is right here"
Judge: "Stanley, that is a telephone answering machine"
Myself: "Sure is, your honor, In fact it is my answering machine from home ,and its name is John Doe. Let me plug it in and it will solve this case". The Judge agrees.
Once I plug my answering machine in ,I play the message:
"This message is for John Doe. If you are not John Doe hang up now ,by continuing to listening to this message you are confirming that you're John Doe. This is an attempt to collect a debt ! "
Myself: "So, you see, your honor; It was not me that answered the phone,but my answer machine ,and according to the evidence my answer machine is John Doe.I wasn't home at the time."
The judge rolls eyes and orders everyone out of his courtroom.
The End
