"I don't know what this caller is talking about, so I'm giving the call to you"
I get this from our front office staff about 20 times a day. Why? There are four other directors but I always get the calls. And they're usually crazy and have nothing to do with our radio station.

"Who did Robert Blake play in Little Rascals?"

"What day is it?"

"I heard something about a concert with Ringo Starr in Chicago; when is it?"

"Where is the UM Dental school?"

OR

"I just won something, do you know what it is?"

"I heard a song last Thursday at 9:15 and need more information."

"I have to write a report on Dizzy Gillespie and need to borrow some CDs."

And, my personal favorite, from a guy who just dropped in one day, wearing a high pointed hat with silver lame stars, a matching cloak, and carrying a staff:

"I'm a wizard and I'd like to have a show on the radio."

Just another day in the life....

2. Well, unfortunately, you can't
All of his wizardry was visual -- a little hard to pull off on the radio. :crazy:

4. That is a very short list
The funniest part was when our office manager came to my door and said "There's a wizard here to see you." I was, shall we say, very taken aback!

:hi: Heidi! Done the Time Warp lately?
