    HOW TO CALL THE POLICE WHEN YOU'RE OLD AND DON'T MOVE FAST ANYMORE.

    George Phillips of Meridian, Mississippi 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?' and he said 'no'. Then they said that all patrols were busy, and that he should simply lock his door and an officer would be along when available.
    George said, 'Okay,' hung up, counted to 30, and 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 them.' Then 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!'

      When I was in my 20's we lived in the Bronx. The police wouldn't come for routine breaking and entering, or in fact, anything having to do with our personal safety. They took their time and many times they never ever showed up. They too said they were too busy.

      We soon learned that if we needed the police all we had to do was call and say, "there's a cop being beaten up by neighborhood hoodlums. The cops came in seconds.

      I've found out that one does what one has to do when pressed to a wall. When I look back at that period in my life I'm glad I live in NJ.
