A 911 operator gets a call one evening but nobody says anything.
Fearing the worst, the operator calls back, and a little boy
answers the phone in whispering voice …
(Operator) Hello little boy. Did you just call 911?
[barely audible] “No!”(Operator) O.K., is your mommy home?
[barely audible] “Yes.”(Operator) Can I speak to her, please?
[barely audible] “No.”(Operator) “Why not?”
[barely audible] “Because she’s busy!”(Operator) “Oh, OK. Is your daddy home then?”
[barely audible] “Yes.”(Operator) “Well, can I speak to him?”
[barely audible] “No!”(Operator) “Well, my goodness, why not?”
[barely audible] “Because he’s busy too!”(Operator) “OH, goodness! What’s he busy doing?”
[barely audible] “Talking to the police.”(Operator) “Oh, so the police are there?”
[barely audible] “Yes.”(Operator) “Can I speak to one of them?”
[barely audible] “No!”(Operator) “Why not?”
[barely audible] “Because they are really busy.”(Operator) “Well, what’s your mom busy doing?”
[barely audible] “Talking to the firemen.”(Operator) “Can I speak to one of the firemen then, please?”
[barely audible] “No.”(Operator) “Well, goodness, why not?”
