Phone Service
Lawrence, Kansas , December 12, 2008
A Kansas farm wife called the local phone company to report hertelephone failed to ring when her friends called - and that on the few
occasions, when it did ring, her dog always moaned right before thephone rang.
The telephone repairman proceeded to the scene, curious to see thispsychic dog or senile lady. He climbed a 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 andthe 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 witha 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 thenumber was called.
4.. After a couple of jolts, the dog would start moaning andthen urinate.
5. The wet ground would complete the circuit, thus causing thephone to ring.
Which demonstrates that some problems CAN be fixed by pissing and moaning.
