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 in my shed. Well, you don't have to worry about them
now cause I've just shot them all." Then he hung up.

Within five minutes three police cars, an Armed Response unit,
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!"
