  • Most Random Question Today/This Year

    Posted on January 27th, 2005 Stanford/Ministry News 1 comment

    My phone rang just after 10:00am. What follows is a rough transcript of the ensuing conversation.

    Her: Hi, is this the right number to call if I have a question about Chi Alpha?
    Me: Yes, I’m Glen Davis, the director of the ministry.
    Her: This is probably going to be the most random question you get today, but did you guys have a meeting last night?
    Me: Yes we did.
    Her: And were you selling tacos there?
    Me: No. Why do you ask?
    Her: My friends told me that you were and I said that was stupid. You were a Christian group and why would you be selling tacos?
    Me: Precisely. There were no tacos for sale at our meeting.
    Her: That’s what I thought.
    Me: May I ask you a question in return?
    Her: Sure.
    Me: Were we doing anything to lead your friends to believe that we had tacos for sale?
    Her: Not that I could see.
    Me: That’s reasurring.
    Her: Yeah, two guys had just made some totally inappropriate comment to me and my friends explained it by saying that your group was selling tacos.
    Me: *pause* Did these two gentlemen seem to be connected with our ministry?
    Her: Oh no, definitely not.
    Me: Okay.
    Her: Anyway, thanks for helping!
    Me: Sure thing. Feel free to call me if you have any more questions.

    How random was that?

    • Hmm…could this be related to the classic CCC joke about using a tacomobile (golf cart giving out free tacos) as a ministry tool?
