Name Calling




Isn't it nice when someone knows your name?

Occasionally, when Don is entering his office, a friend will pull up,
 power down the car window, and call out his name.  
The other day, as he arrived at work, he heard a voice he didn't recognize calling, 
"Don, Don!".  It sounded like someone in distress.  
Don looked around the parking lot quickly, but didn't see anyone, 
until, glancing at a nearby fence he saw the source of the mystery. 
A mockingbird was perched there, calling his name.





Trying to be the helpful, friendly guy he always is, 
Don inquired, "Is there something I can do for you?  
The bird, apparently deciding there had been enough small talk, took wing. 

"Was it something I said?" Don asked, but the only reply was a distant call...
"Don! Don!"
