My wife, uh, has worms

20 plus years ago, before we went to a central 911 center, all of our emergency calls were answered by the city PD dispatcher. As soon as the phone started ringing we could hear the entire conversation over the intercom system in the fire station.

One evening we were sitting around the station watching television when the emergency line rang.

Dispatcher: Please state your emergency!

Caller: Well……. Uh………..Um………….

D: What is your emergency, sir?

S: Uh……….. Um, uh………… Gosh…………

D:  Do you have an emergency, sir?

S: Uh…… Well…………  Uh, um, I’m not sure if this is an emergency or not.  Uh, um…………………

D: Sir, what is the problem?

S: Geez, um…….. Uh, I think my wife, uh……… has worms…………..

At which point one of the guys yells out at the intercom system, “Is she scooting her ass across the carpet?”
