Conversation with the Landlord, Part II
I\'m wishing ass cancer on you!

In Part I of our Conversation, [Landlord] promised to be over Friday afternoon. It is now Sunday afternoon. I have been calling both his home and cell numbers since yesterday, trying to reach him to find out why he hasn't made good on his promise. Finally, he answered his cell phone:

Hello?

Hello, [Landlord]?

Hello?

Hello.

Hello? Anyone there?

Nice try. I know you can hear me.

What? Hello, who is this?

This is Jeff. Your tenant on xth Street.

Well, I don't have no tenants on (x+2)th Street. Goodbye.

*click*

Fifteen more minutes of calling him back and going to voicemail - which he hasn't set up, so it won't let me leave a message. Finally:

Hello?

Hello, [Landlord]. This is Jeff. Your tenant on xth Street.

This ain't [Landlord].

Well, this is [Landlord]'s phone number.

No, this ain't [Landlord]. I found this phone on the floor.

*click*

I guess he found [Landlord]'s voice on the floor, too.
