Pi$$ and moan

[turbinedoctor]

> 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 pissing
>> and >moaning.
