[Me: Friendly Neighborhood Cabaret Box Office.
Caller: Is this Bill?
Me: It sure is.
Caller: Bill, this is Boz Scaggs.
Me: Hi! How are you doing?
Caller: Fine. Listen, Bill, I just got back from Paris, and I lost my address book. Do you happen to have Paula's number?
Me: Um, sure, I think so. *riffle riffle riffle thru Rolodex* It's (***) ***-****.
Caller: Thanks, Bill, I sure 'preciate it.
Me: No problem. Hope to see you here again soon.
Caller: 'Bye.
Me: 'Bye.]

[The voice was unmistakable, even if I'd never talked to him before. Even if it's just as a secretary, it's still showbiz, right?]
