Hello, Steve, I love this one. Thanks for sharing. Original message: > DON'T MESS WITH OLD PEOPLE. > HOW TO CALL THE POLICE > WHEN YOU'RE OLD > AND DON'T MOVE FAST ANYMORE. > George Phillips , an elderly man, from 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?" > He said "No," but some people are breaking into my garden shed and > stealing from me. > Then the police dispatcher said "All patrols are busy. You should lock > your doors and an officer will be along when one is available." > George said, "Okay." > He hung up the phone and counted to 30. > Then he phoned the police again. > "Hello, I just called you a few seconds ago because there were people > stealing things from my shed. Well, you don't have to worry about them > now because I just shot them." and he hung up. > Within five minutes, six Police Cars, a SWAT Team, a Helicopter, two > Fire Trucks, a Paramedic, 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!" > (True Story) I LOVE IT! > Don't mess with old people
