Andrew Sterling-Good for...?

[Mortimer]

I recall another phone incident.

Another fine mess The Care-lah had gotten me into. She gave me his cell phone number and dared me to call him.

It sounded like a familiar dare.





I wondered to myself-----do ah feel lucky?





Stupid is as stupid does. I called---wasn't in.

I froze again as I knew he was famous so I just told the service it wasn't important and I would try again.

Forgetting I left trace evidence of my phone number.




So long forgotten...about a week or so later I answer my phone...."WHAT!?"




It's a New York voice announcing himself as Andy Serling...and he got a call from this number only he has no idea who it's from...




Oh boy. ...caught off guard again. I froze again.

All I could do was laugh.



Uh...Mr. Serling does not enjoy being laughed at by strangers who have called him...leaving no message.

WHO IS THIS?....he said.






But there was a problem.




I forgot who I was again!!




ror!!..REALLY!





I forgot my pet name....so I laughed harder...which made him madder...WHOISTHIS!!?.......I said....come on ! don't you know? It's Dave.




He didn't know me by that name.

I was brilliant.





I kept pressing to remember my board name as he got more insistent on knowing who the fucl< I was!




Then he says.....MORTY!!?





rule-eng un ze flour!!


So I says...I says.......YES!! RIGHT!!!...HEY---YOU'RE GOOD!






I don't recall much after that.

He may have hung up on me again.
