Things you do NOT want to have happen: phone rings, caller ID shows a number in the town where your kid is at school, you pick up and hear "I need to speak with the parent of {your kid's name here}" ...

The time between me saying "this is he" and "I'm with the Ole Miss Family Association and wanted to discuss a donation ..." is one of the longer gaps in time I've had in quite a while.

Dunno what idiot came up with their script but they're in the wrong line of work.

Last weekend my wife and I were shopping and we got a call from son's college zip. For a split second I was thinking uh-oh but I remembered your post.

It was a call to ask about how my son's college experience has been. I suspect it would have gotten to donation but wife cut her short as we were in a store.
