I got the call at three A.M., the time I usually get the call. I have been meaning to talk to the phone call people about that as I really need my sleep and phone calls in the middle of the night really put an annoying damper on that.

Anyhoos, as I was saying, I got the call at 3:00 AM. Actually, it probably wasn’t exactly 3:00 AM when I got the call as it may have been a few minutes, give or take. I just tend not to look at the clock when someone calls, making it very difficult to determine exactly when someone has called me.

Which got me thinking about our criminal justice system, especially when my mind starts thinking about court room interrogations when the prosecutor asks the defendant, “Where were you at 3:00 in the morning?” I mean how is anyone supposed to remember what he or she was doing at 3:00 in the morning? Not everyone gets that call at 3AM so they’ll be able to remember what they were doing at 3:00 in the morning, or even where they were. Okay, I admit that if someone’s not a night owl, they’re probably going to remember where they were. They were sleeping, unless they’re me.

I did mention I have trouble sleeping, right? And if you get calls at 3AM, well, you’re probably not going get a lot of sleep.
