911

A 911 Dispatcher received a call one evening but nobody said anything. Fearing the worst, the Dispatcher called back, and a little boy answered the phone in a whispering voice ... [barely audible] Hello! (Dispatcher) Hello little boy. Did you just call 911? [barely audible] "No!" (Dispatcher) O.K., is your mommy home? [barely audible] "Yes." (Dispatcher) Can I speak to her, please? [barely audible] "No." (Dispatcher) "Why not?" [barely audible] "Because she's busy!" (Dispatcher) "Oh, OK. Is your daddy home then?"  [barely audible] "Yes." (Dispatcher) "Well, can I speak to him?" [barely audible] "No!" (Dispatcher) "Well, my goodness, why not?"  [barely audible] "Because he's busy too!" (Dispatcher) "Oh, goodness! What's he busy doing?" [barely audible] "Talking to the police."  (Dispatcher) "Oh, so the police are there?"  [barely audible] "Yes." (Dispatcher) "Can I speak to one of them?"  [barely audible] "No!" (Dispatcher) "Why not?" [barely audible] "Because they are really busy." (Dispatcher) "Well, what's your mom busy doing?"   [barely audible] "Talking to the firemen." (Dispatcher) "Can I speak to one of the firemen then, please?" [barely audible] "No." (Dispatcher) "Well, goodness, why not?" [barely audible] "Because they are really busy too!" (Dispatcher) "Well, what are all of these people busy doing?" [barely audible] "Looking for me!"
