Welcome to November

Hey November, how ya doin?

Its been 12 months since we last saw you, and you are starting out...wet.

24 hours Firecom yesserday.

Lets see....Landslide, check, got that.

Hmmm. Threats of tornadoes...check, got that.

Torential Rains?...checkity check, check. Got it.

Auto accidents...sure!

Our finest HPD (Police) not having a clue?....Big check!

Oh where have you gone, Magarret?

Callers asking if a hurricane is coming.....Dear God, check.

Lady calling to say her foundation of her home is moving.

Calling from a cell phone.

HM - "Are you on a cell phone at your home?"

CallerID - "Uh, no."

HM - "So how can you tell that your house's foundation is moving from the rain?"

CallerID - " My neighbor called"

HM - "Do you have your neighbors phone number, and is there anyone in danger?"

CallerID - "she isnt there either"

HM - "So how do you know the foundation is compromised?"

CallerID - " The other neighbor called her"

HM - "Do you have their number?"

CallerID - " Uh, No."

HM - "So this is all third, maybe fourth party information?"

CallerID - "Um, Yeah"

HM - "Are you headed home, now?"

CallerID - "as soon as i can leave work, in an hour or two"

HM - "Mam, I dont think there is much we can do if you are not at scene, and have no contact with anyone reporting this problem"

CallerID - "Oh, so I have to wait till someone gets in danger before you will do something?"

HM - " Mam, there isnt much we can do about a moving house"

CallerID - "So why is that?" " I mean dont you stop it, somehow?"

HM - " Mam, it is a house you are talking about that is supposedly moving"..."a HOUSE"

CallerID - "But what about the neighbors house? what if it endangers them?"

HM - " What is your adress? , we can send a company out to check the situation"

CallerID - " Its XXXXXX XXXXXXXX St."

HM - " OK...we..."

CallerID - cutting me off..."Dont use the lights and sirens, it will scare the neighbors"

HM - "We dont do stealth, mam"...We have to use lights and sirens"

CallerID - " Oh, never mind then"

HM - ACK.

And its raining all day, and KJ is laughing, so it is OK.

But I am not a good kine wet.

Aloha.
