The First of April.

Published by attygnorris at 8:57 pm under Family Humor Edit This

I’d like to start the 1st of April with something sad… no, no… with something inspirational… no, that won’t do either… how about with some HUMOR?  After all, it is April Fools’ Day.  Click here to learn what wikipedia has to say about how this informal holiday came to be… and then enjoy the family joke.

Received this via email.  Original source unknown:

A boss wondered why one of his most valued employees had not phoned in to tell him that he was sick one day. Having an urgent problem with one of the main computers, he dialed the employee’s home phone number and was greeted with a child’s whisper.

“Hello.”

“Is your daddy home?” he asked.

“Yes,” whispered the small voice.

“May I talk with him?”

The child whispered, “No.”

Surprised and wanting to talk with an adult, the boss asked, “Is your Mommy there?”

“Yes.”

“May I talk with her?”

Again the small voice whispered, “No.”

Hoping there was somebody with whom he could leave a message, the boss asked, “Is anybody else there?”

“Yes,” whispered the child, “a policeman”.

Wondering what a cop would be doing at his employee’s home, the boss asked, “May I speak with the policeman?”

“No, he’s busy,” whispered the child.

“Busy doing what?”

“Talking to Daddy and Mommy and the Fireman,” came the whispered answer.

Growing more worried as he heard what sounded like a helicopter through the earpiece on the phone, the boss asked, “What is that noise?”

“A helicopter,” answered the whispering voice.

“What is going on there?” demanded the boss, now truly apprehensive.

Again, whispering, the child answered, “The search team just landed the helicopter.”

Alarmed, concerned and a little frustrated the boss asked, “What are they searching for?”

Still whispering, the young voice replied with a muffled giggle…….”ME.”

Of course the 1st day of April wouldn’t be complete without thanking my readers, commenters, and droppers for the month of March.  “Thanks so much!” to everyone who visits my blogs… and extra smooches to those on my top Entrecard dropper list for March.  I hope you will still visit once I remove my Entrecard widget after April 7th.  Laughing
