What Fio Doesn't Know

Fio got a real thrill yesterday morning when a nice lady from Enterprise called to tell Husband that a rental car was ready and waiting for him to use while his Mercury Grand Prix was in the shop.

Since Husband does not drive a Mercury Grand Prix, Fio was quite perplexed.

Then the Enterprise lady mentioned Elk River and the light dawned. Elder Son's name is the same as Husband's, but he lives in Elk River, Minnesota, several states away from God's Country. His car is a Mercury Grand Prix.

Whew, for a moment there, Fio was wondering what else she didn't know.

Mistaken identity by a rental car agency isn’t so bad. It’s always my good fortune to be hounded by collection agencies, seeking another person with the same name. Some just don’t want to give up, even after being informed they have the wrong party, with a different SS number.

I’ve had to write more than a couple notes to the DA’s office, copying the collection agency, to get them to stop. Then they all-of-a-sudden become quite apologetic.
