How to call the police when you're older, and don't move as fast anymore

George Phillips, an older gentleman, from Walled

Lake, Michigan, 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 and killed them both, the

dogs are eating whats left" 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.

The moral of this true story is: Don't mess with the older generation.
