Henry's son,David,burst into the house, crying.
His mother asked him what the problem was.
"Daddy and I were fishing, and he hooked a giant fish. Really big.Then,while he was reeling it in,the line busted and the fish got away."
"Now come on, David," his mother said, "a big boy like you shouldn't be crying about an accident like that. You should have just laughed it off." "But that's just what I did, Mommy."

The boss of a big company needed to call one of his employees about an urgent problem with one of the main computers. He dialed the employees home phone number and was greeted with a child's whispered,
"Hello?" Feeling put out at the inconvenience of having to talk to a youngster the boss asked,
"Is your Daddy home?"
"Yes", whispered Little Johnny. May I talk with him?" the man asked.
To the surprise of the boss, Little Johnny whispered, "No".
Wanting to talk with an adult, the boss asked, "Is Mommy there?"
"Yes", came the answer. "May I talk with her?"
Again Little Johnny whispered, "No." Knowing that it was not likely that a young child would be left home alone, the boss decided he would just leave a message with the person who should be there watching over the child.
"Is there any one there besdies you?" the boss asked the child.
"Yes", whispered Little Johnny, "A policeman."
Wondering what a cop would be doing at his employee's home, the boss asked, "May I speak with the policeman?"
"No, he's busy", whispered Little Johnny.
"Busy doing what?" asked the boss.
"Talking to Daddy and Mommy and the Fireman", came the whispered answer.
Growing concerned and even worried as he heard what sounded like a helicotor through the ear piece on the phone theboss asked, "What is that noise?"
"A hello-copper", answered the whispering Little Johnny.
"What is going on there?" asked the boss. now alarmed.
In an awed whispering voice Little Johnny annswered, The search team just landed the hello-copper!"
Alarmed, concerned and more than just a little frustrated the boss asked, Why are they there?"
Still whispering, Little Johnny replied along with a muffled giggle, "They're looking for Me!"

Late one Saturday evening, I was awakened by the ringing of my phone. In a sleepy grumpy voice I said hello. The party on the other end of the line paused for a moment before rushing breathlessly into a lengthy speech.
"Mom, this is Susan and I'm sorry I woke you up, but I had to call because I'm going to be a little late getting home. See, Dad's car has a flat but it's not my fault. Honest! I don't know what happened. The tire just went flat while we were inside the theater. Please don't be mad, okay?"
Since I don't have any daughters, I knew the person had misdialed.
"I'm sorry dear, "I replied, "but you've reached the wrong number. I don't have a daughter named Susan."
"Gosh, Mom, "came the young woman's voice, "I didn't think you'd be this mad."
