Lee's Funnies

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 employee's 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 the small voice.

"May I talk with him?" the man asked.

To the surprise of the boss, the small voice whispered,
"No."

Wanting to talk with an adult, the boss asked, "Is your
Mommy there?"

"Yes," came the answer.

"May I talk with her?"

Again the small voice 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 besides you?" the boss asked the
child.

"Yes," whispered the child, "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 the child.

"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 helicopter through the ear piece on the phone the
boss asked, "What is that noise?"

"A hello-copper," answered the whispering voice.

"What is going on there?", asked the boss, now alarmed.

In an awed whispering voice the child answered, "The search
team just landed the "hello-copper."

Alarmed, concerned and more, the frustrated boss asked,
"What are they searching for?"

Still whispering, the young voice replied along with a
muffled giggle: "Me."
