Technical Difficulties

An elderly lady phoned her telephone 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 this psychic 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

p*ss*ng and moaning.
