HOW TO CALL THE POLICE WHEN YOU' RE OLD AND DONT MOVE FAST ANYMORE. (Not that any of you are that!)
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 and 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!"

Reminds me of Benjamin Bratt in the movie with a name I cant remember. He walks into a flash restuarant with his girlfriend only to be told that as he hasn't made a booking he cannot eat there. He asks the Maitre-d "Would it make a difference if I told you that Harrison Ford will be joining us in 15 minutes." He is immediately seated...... Harrison, of course doesn't show.... As the evening goes on the Maitre-d asks him why he lied and said that Harrison Ford was coming to eat at the restuarant....to which Benjamin replied.... I'm sorry, but I asked you "Would it make a difference if I told you that Harrison Ford will be joining us." And clearly it did........
