Should I get a new phone number?

And you miss Dad, don't you?

 

uh-oh, hope it's not THIS Abron Jackson:

SENATOBIA - Abron Jackson, 59, retired railroad worker, died April 25, 2004 at his home. Services will be at 1 p.m. Saturday at Ebenezer Missionary Baptist Church in Como with burial in Mount Moriah Church Cemetery there. Felix Cauthen Funeral Home has charge. He was a member of Mount Moriah Church. He leaves four daughters, Maeree Burton of Senatobia, and Charlene Jackson, Constance M. Jackson and Helen Faye Gordon, all of St. Louis; three sons, Clinton Burton and Dexter Burton, both of Senatobia, and Eric Burton of Louisville; a sister, Sara Jean Milan of Chicago; a brother, Edward Jackson of Memphis, 16 grandchildren and a great-grandchild.

 

I'd go with the temporary new number. If that doesn't work, then it's time to break out the crowbars.

 

Give the companies a little starman justice.

Remember since they called you, you can threaten physical violence and it wouldn't be against the law.


Seriously tho, a call to the police probably won't help much. When I had this problem with the company calling my cell phone, I asked the police if there was anything they could do and they said no, since it's really not harassment.

 

If you think you have it rough, we received calls for six months in the middle of the night from some incoherent crack head lady who asked for someone like Ray Ray. Without fail, it took her at least a full minute to comprehend that I was not Ray Ray. Finally, after repeating myself about three times, she'd say, "Oh, I see. You're not Ray Ray. You're Abron."

 

Where the heck is Senatobia? Sounds Canadian. The fact that he's got family in St. Louis (if it's the one in Mo.) may actually make that him, because I'm near STL. Of course, he died three years ago, so I don't know how he'd still be giving out my number, unless it's somebody who's stolen a dead guy's identity.

For all I know, though, I'm not spelling Abron right. It could be Abren, or Abbron, or Abronn. When people call, they pronounce it two different ways - Uh-brawn or A-brun.

 

So Rusty, what are you going to do?

 

It's in Mississippi. Just south of Memphis, Tenn.
