I had a similar one, but I think it was more a statement of surprise than a question. I had just won a contest and the radio station is quite far from where I live, so I asked the d.j. if the album could be mailed to me and I explained that I was blind and that I would have difficulty in picking it up. His answer was, and this is a direct quote, "you're blind and you can dial the phone?"
