    PHONE REPAIR

    Lawrence, Kansas,
    A Kansas farm wife called the local phone company to report her telephone
    failed to ring when her friends called - and that on the few occasions, when
    it did ring, her dog always moaned right before the phone rang.
    The telephone repairman proceeded to the scene, curious to see this psychic
    dog or senile lady. He climbed a telephone pole, hooked in his test set, and
    dialed the subscriber's house.
    The phone didn't ring right away, but then the dog moaned and the telephone
    began to ring.
    Climbing down from the pole, the telephone repairman found:
    1. The dog was tied to the telephone system's ground wire with a steel
    chain and collar.
    2. The wire connection to the ground rod was loose.
    3. The dog was receiving 90 volts of signaling current when the number was
    called.
    4. After a couple of jolts, the dog would start moaning and then urinate.
    5. The wet ground would complete the circuit, thus causing the phone to
    ring.
    Which demonstrates that some problems CAN be fixed by pissing and moaning.
    Thought you'd like to know.

    Isn't it strange that after a bombing everyone blames the Crazy Azz bomber(s), but after a shooting the problem is the gun?
