Sister to brother, coming home from school to an empty house:
"Mommie can't be too far away, the phone's still warm."
Did y'all hear about the "Dial-A-Prayer" telephone service for agnostics
?
You dial the number and no one answers.
Small boy on phone as sister rushes to grab the receiver:
"You got the wrong number. I ain't got no beautiful sister."
One psychiatrist has discovered a great way to get his female patients to
talk freely --
he puts a phone in their hands.
After singing "Happy Birthday" the couple found they had reached a wrong number.
"That's OK." said the voice on the other end of the line, "You two can sure use the practice."
Suffering from a bad case of the flu, the outraged patient bellowed, "Three weeks ??? The doctor can't see me for three weeks ??? I could well be dead by then."
Calmly the voice at the other end of the line replied, "If so, would you have your wife call to cancel the appointment."
I recently called the IRS to order a tax booklet. The woman answered: "This is Kathy [Smith]. My ID number is [789123]."
I said, "This is Lieut Commander Jim Moore Jr, USN Retired. My ID number is [555-55-55]. My security clearance is Able-Charlie-One and the password for today is 'please'."
Thereafter followed 2-3 minutes of sustained hearty laugher. Then she informed me that in all her years of service no one had ever pulled such a stunt.
After I ordered the form, she said instead of the normal ten day wait for the booklet, I'd have it in two days. (I did !)
