  The Number Story
  
  I don't remember how I old I was, it must have been, I don't know, seven or eight years old. When I just randomly one day as a kid dialed the number and it rang through to some sort of corporate buiding in Los Angeles, I was living in downtown at the time, downtown LA. And at that point in time still, for those of you who know I do voice-overs, I still had some capabilities and even though I had a young sounding voice, I was able to go a little deeper so I sounded like I was a little older.
  
  And I asked for, I don't remember his name, whatever name I mentioned. Harry Goldmen. And I said "Is Harry Goldmen there?" The person who answered the phone said "Hold on a minute, may I ask who's speaking?" and I said, trying to be brilliant, "Yes this is the IRS." so I get put on hold waiting for a person I never thought would acutally be at this particular number, Harry Goldmen. So I'm waiting for about 30 seconds, the operator comes back and she says "Mr Goldmen will be right with you sir, he's just finishing up a meeting it'll be just another few seconds." so I'm thinking "Oh My God what am I going to do now" because I never expected this to acutally happen.
  
  So then he acutally gets on the phone, and I say "Mr Goldmen, this is the IRS, my name is Officer Prince or Agent Prince and I want to let you know that you have backtaxes in the amount of about $50,000 which need to be paid immediately and he started freaking out. And I don't remember what I said at that point, I was just trying to play along. When it got to the point where it was so serious on his end, he was literally, I don't remember what, that he was either gonna try and get my name and report me to the FBI for tracking him down or the IRS for tracking him down or he was about to bawl, I don't remember which it was, but at that point I just said "Okay, I gotta go" and hang up the phone. Didn't even say goodbye or anything.
