Something to think
about!
George Phillips of Meridian Mississippi was going up to bed when his
wife told him that he'd left the light on in the garden shed, which
she
could see from the bedroom window. George opened the back door to
go turn off the light but saw that there were people in the shed
stealing things. He phoned the police, who asked "Is someone in your house?"
and he said no. Then they said that all patrols were busy, and that
he should simply lock his door and an officer would be along when
available.
George said "Okay," hung up, counted to 30, and phoned the police
again. "Hello. I just called you a few seconds ago because there
were people in my shed. Well, you don't have to worry about them now
cause I've just shot them all." Then he hung up. Within five minutes three
police cars, an Armed Response unit, and an ambulance showed up at the
Phillips residence.
Of course, the police caught the burglars red-handed. One of the
policemen said to George: "I thought you said that you'd shot them!"
George
said, "I thought you said there was nobody available!"
