OK, Here's the way it went down. Ten minutes ago some kid called up, pretending to be my grandson. The police had him for hitting some girl who had cut him off and it was going to take $25,000 to get out of it. The Actor even sounded a lot like him, but not enough like him to be convincing. The voice was different. I saw him just Saturday and I'm familiar with his voice. Supposedly he was in the police station (where ??) and the sergeant was qouting a price (?) to get out of it. When he hit me with the 25Gs I told him to shove it up his backside and hung up. This is the second time this has happened. I called the cops the first time and they told me it was quite common. Especially, with us grandparents, who'll generally do anything for our grandchildren. So be on the lookout!
