RING... RING...

Pick Up

"Hello?"

"Hi honey, this is Daddy. Is Mommy near the phone?"

"No, Daddy. She's upstairs in the bedroom with Uncle Frank."

"Uh, okay. Here's what I want you to do. Put the phone down, run upstairs, knock on the bedroom door, and shout that Daddy's car just pulled into the driveway."

"Okay, Daddy. Just a minute."

A few minutes later, the girl returns.

"I did it, Daddy."

"And what happened, honey?"

"Well, Mommy got all scared, jumped out of bed with no clothes on, and ran around screaming. Then she tripped over the rug, hit her head on the dresser, and now she isn't moving at all!"

"Oh my God! What about Uncle Frank?"

"He jumped out of bed with no clothes on too. He was scared and jumped out the back window into the swimming pool. But I guess he didn't know you took out the water last week to clean it. He hit the bottom, and I think he's dead."

Long pause...
Longer pause...

Then Daddy says, "Swimming pool? What swimming pool? Is this 937-2819?"
