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!

Why are men not Agony Uncles ?


Sally emails her local radio station Agony Uncle Jim

Dear Jim. Last week I left for work as usual, but having gone only a mile my car sputtered and broke down.
So I walked home again and, arriving unexpectedly, I found my 16 year old baby sitter handcuffed to my bed in school girl's uniform, with my husband on top of her, going at it like the clappers..............
Can you please help me ?????

Jim replied :

Dear Sally.
A common cause of this is dirt in the carburettor.
Don't let your fuel drop too low in the tank.
I hope this helps.

Jim

Good one, I hope that solved her problem if not have her add a bottle of Carb. Cleaner on her next fill-up.

Sir, I will gladly take that 16 gauge off your hands. I was waiting for your Winchesters but I'm a sucker for a 16 ga.

I bought a great deal of the brass he had for sale, plus I already had many hundred rounds.

How much brass are you looking for?
