I don't know if I ever mentioned this but I got a call to perform an exorcism.

I was sitting in my living room when the phone went off and I saw it was an old shipmate. I answered it and the instant I did my shipmate asked me if my religious credentials were up to date.

"Yeah, sure," I replied. 

"Oh, good. How would you like to come to Maine and perform an exorcism?"

"I suppose I  could. What's up?"

"The wife and I are standing in a pretty nice house that was built in 1815 and the wife asked me if an old place like this has any ghosts in it. I said quick fix and called you." he said.

"I can do that if you'll supply the transportation," I answered.

"Cool," he said and hung up.

I later got an email telling me that the realtor standing next to his wife got pretty wide eyed having heard his half of the conversation. the conversation.
