Turns Out There Is Something Worse Than Helping A Friend Remodel.....The FBI Being After Your Kid

Well this weekend we helped Jodi with her remodeling job. We traded out jobs she painted our house so we are wiring her house. Either way you look at it nobody came out smelling like a rose! So at the time we all joked around because we said that there is nothing worse than remodeling.
Turns out that there is.....
Picture this....

My oldest son goes over to a friends house and his friend pulls out the phone book and randomly points to a number to call. My son pranks this individual. Well after a little pranking the individual indicates that he works for the FBI. Not only does he work for the FBI he has already traced the call. My son and his friend laugh and hang up. Well the FBI Guy calls them back. The boys chalk it up to caller id. Until that is the FBI guy tells them that he knows where they are at so he tells the address and says he is own the way to talk to their parents and that charges will be filed. Just in the nick of time (before my sons passes out, because he believes EVERYTHING) his friend tells him that it isn't the FBI its Mr. Mike the Sunday school teacher.You see Mr. Mike was renting a house while waiting for his house to be done so the phone was listed under a different name. The friend didn't randomly pick the number it was all planned out! After the shock wore off and the blood came back to his face he laughed about it. At our church homecoming we laughed and laughed about it. At least it was a lesson learned. You would think that the lesson learned is don't prank phone call people. Nope the lesson learned here is you never know when you are the one being pranked!

I was known to prank call people back in my younger days. I remember one time I called McDonald's and asked for a "Big Smack." You also have to know that I was about 7 at the time so all of that was funny.
