An Ellisville school teacher 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 just by pissing and moaning!

Thought you'd like to know.

Awesome! :lmao:

Strange sense of humor.:scratch2:

So................you people think animal cruelty is funny and you thought we'd just like to know. :scratch2:

Don't pay any attention James. Hysteria seems to be running rampant here lately, hopefully it won't cross the border and infest the Canadians who still seem to have a sense of humor and can tell a difference between a joke and a serious topic.

Guys, it was a joke and no real animals were hurt. Nobody was condoning animal cruelty here. C’mon!

Wow. Guess I won’t tell any cat jokes.

I’m still trying to get over all the “senior citizen” jokes over in the “humor” thread.... :rolleyes:

This is a joke thread; nuf said.

I'm glad what little filtering I have left kicked in; I was going to say something about Mississsippi. ;-).
