Problems with the phone joke.....

For you younger guys, almost all homes had landline phones...
An elderly woman called the phone company to report that her telephone failed to ring when her friends called - and that on the few occasions when it did ring, her pet dog always moaned right before the phone rang.
The telephone repairman proceeded to the scene, curious to see thispsychic dog or senile elderly lady. He climbed a nearby telephone pole, hooked in his test set, and dialed the subscriber's house. The phone didn't ring right away, but then the dog moaned loudly and the telephone began to ring.
Climbing down from the pole, the telephone repairman found:
1. The dog was tied to the telephone system's ground wire via a steel
chain and collar.
2. The wire connection to the ground rod was loose.
3. The dog was receiving 90 volts of signaling current when the phone
number was called.
4. After a couple of such jolts, the dog would start moaning and then
urinate on himself and the ground.
5. The wet ground would complete the circuit, thus causing the phone
to ring.
Which demonstrates that some problems CAN be fixed by pi$$ing and
moaning.
I see you smiling.

The phone story was hilarious!
Reminds me of a time while in Prescott Arizona down on Whiskey Row, I saw two elderly ladies sitting on a bench. Each one had a bill-cap on. One read “PISS” and the other one read “MOAN”. They were quite the couple!
