Sure doesn't take a lot to get under your skin. By the standards of political comedy herein that was about a 2 on a scale of 10.

Rrriiiiinnnnggg, rrriiiinnnngg,



'Hello?'



'Hi honey.

This is Daddy.

Is Mommy near the phone?'



'No, Daddy.

She's upstairs in the bedroom with Uncle Gabe.'



After a brief pause,



Daddy says,

'But honey, you haven't got an Uncle Gabe.'



'Oh yes I do, and he's upstairs in the room with Mommy,

Right now.'



Brief Pause.



'Uh, okay then, this is what I want you to do.

Put the phone down on the table, run upstairs

And knock on the bedroom door and shout to Mommy

That Daddy's car just pulled into the driveway.'



'Okay, Daddy, Just a minute.'



A few minutes later

The little girl comes back to the phone.



'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 your Uncle Gabe?'



'He jumped out of the bed with no clothes on, too.



He was all scared and he jumped out of the back window

and into the swimming pool.

But I guess he didn't know that you took out the water

last week to clean it.



He hit the bottom of the pool and I think he's dead.'



Long Pause



Longer Pause



Even Longer Pause



Then Daddy says,



'Swimming pool? .............



Is this 486-5731?'



No, you have the wrong number.........
