I sometimes ask them off-the-wall questions about any number of variety of topics. A few times once they have called me I started a monologue about the importance of insurance provisions for our loved ones in the unfortunate event of our demise. I was surprised how one of them gave me all his personal information expecting to receive a safety package about insurance. I just remembered about one time I was talking nasty about porn on one of the phone calls. Another time I asked the caller if his soul has been saved for eternity.
