Since you brought up strange calls,I have a follow up to one. A year or so ago,somebody called and told my wife that he was Phil Lund and was looking for me and that my mother died. I have a cousin Phil,but this guy said he was my nephew. After some talk,he said the name of the woman who died was Pam. When the wife said he had the wrong guy,he apologized all over the place. The guy he was looking for even had the same middle name as me and had a sister Linda.
Today I got a hand written card in the mail with an Omaha Nebraska return address that started out "Dear Randy,I'm the daughter of Carl Lund but he would have been your uncle. Was your dad Arnold and your mother Erma?"
Carl was my grand dad's name,not my uncle. Dad had an aunt Emma,but not Erma. She went on to name a bunch of other relatives of hers,some that were names or relatives of mine,some that weren't. Then she mentioned Pam,and that was the name of the woman that the caller said was my mother.
She gave me her phone number and address at the end of the note,so the wife called her and told her she had the wrong guy. They talked for quite a little while. When she hung up,she said the gal was kind of an odd duck.
I called a place in Wisconsin one time to order some parts and when I gave the guy my name he said that was his brother in law's name. It's scary to think that there are that many of me out there,but apparently I'm not the only one. It's just funny how many other names of relatives come up.

While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
